The City Puzzlers! – Ideas for the City of Tomorrow

Professor Binke Lenhardt, Claudia Rother | Faculty of Architecture

Imagine Dortmund is a giant jigsaw puzzle—and some pieces are still missing. That’s exactly what vacant lots are!

In this architecture workshop, you’ll become architects: You’ll develop creative ideas for filling those gaps with exciting, colorful, and vibrant buildings. But that’s not all: You’ll design facades with plants, plant trees along the streets, and discover how more nature makes the city cooler on hot days. Not only does this look beautiful, but it also helps make Dortmund a better place to live and prepares it for the future.

Target audience: Children ages 8 to 12

Number of participants: maximum 15 children

PLEASE NOTE: Due to space limitations, each child may be accompanied by no more than 1 adult!

Registration is required by Friday, November 27, 2026, to participate.
