We propose that the main path in the new N\u00e4geleinpark, currently being planned on the banks of the Pegnitz (red dots), be named the Merianin-Uferweg (Merian Riverside Walk).<\/p>\n

1: Way to Hallerwiese, the Gardens of the Hesperides and St. John\u2019s Cemetery<\/p>\n

2: Way to Medicinal Herb Garden, B\u00fcrgermeistergarten (Mayor's Garden) and to the Burggarten (Castle Garden)<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

  1. The name \"Merianin\" is a perfect match to the historical heritage of our city and the increasing importance of nature and its living creatures in today\u2019s urban space. Urban nature and urban culture must be considered together in planning civic space to ensure the best possible future for Nuremberg. This also accords with the motto of Nuremberg's application for European Capital of Culture in 2025 = \u201cpast + forward!\u201d<\/li>\n
  2. A single name for the entire riverside path with appropriate identification through a butterfly motif marked out in stones in the pavement makes orientation easier for locals and visitors. In particular, walking around the Weinstadel will turn into child's play. Indeed, in our suggestion we are thinking especially of children as \"trail scouts\" for the adults.<\/li>\n
