About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Homberg (Efze) is a beautiful, historic timber framing city close to the German Fairy Tale Route and an important reformation city. High up above the city is the „Hohenburg“, a medieval castle ruin with an amazing view over the city and a castle restaurant. You will carry out a variety of gardening and handicraft activities around the ruin of the castle. Your help is needed to maintain and create paths, prepare the areas for a car park for hikers, design new benches, put up new signs and maybe you can even plaster a small area. You will be supervised by volunteers from the Burgberggemeinden Vereins (club). If the weather is bad, you can carry out other jobs, like renewing stalls or building an insect hotel. The community is looking forward to your help!
