Following the complete refurbishment of the town hall with new radial interiors, the 50-metre-long mural by artists Karl-Heinz Adler and Friedrich Kracht has now also been restored as part of the general refurbishment of the north-west wing with the redesign of the main entrance to the town hall. The main entrance with the Adler-Kracht foyer and the monument to the Peaceful Revolution designed by our architect Detlef were officially inaugurated.
After 5 years of construction and an investment of 13.6 million euros, the main entrance was reopened yesterday. The fact that one of the triggering moments of this tense turnaround was the large-scale demonstration in Plauen is worthily expressed with the crowning photo glass pane at the historic site of the event with all its inherent explosiveness.
Congratulations once again to the entire team for this truly impressive and valuable project!
