‘With my seeds, I wanted to make a small, blooming statement in the grey city. It burst out of a small crack and the entire public space changed.’
Maurice Maggi

Back in the 1980s, gardener and chef Maurice Maggi (1955-2024) recognised that the city had great potential for increasing biodiversity. He was the first ‘urban gardener’ and ‘plant activist’ to sow pioneer plants in the city that successfully adapted to their barren habitat.

During our city walk, we follow in the footsteps of Maurice Maggi and explore what is already in bloom.
Our walk lasts around 1.5 - 2 hours and is wheelchair accessible. We meet at the Löwenbräu station. We then take a look at the slope on Dammweg and walk along the viaduct arches to the end, where there is a wheelchair-accessible lift. We then walk together to Josefwiese, where we end the walk together (see map).

When: April 5, 2025 (11:00 - 13:00)

Accessibility:
Please note that the walk is in german
The city walk will be led by art mediator Alexandra Eichenauer and inclusion specialist and artist Michael Herrmann.
The city walk takes place in all weathers and is free of charge. As the ramp is quite long for wheelchair users who are travelling independently, we are happy to offer assistance.
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer sign language interpretation as this would go beyond our financial means. However, we are working on developing accessibility for all at other WE ARE AIA events.
Michael Herrmann, our inclusion specialist and artist himself, is committed to this.
