Organizer: Institut für die Europäische Stadt e.V. in cooperation with the Ökologie-Zentrum Aachen e.V. and many interested initiatives and institutions in the city of Aachen that deal with the topic of water.
Aachen does not have a large river but many springs, warm and cold, and accordingly also many small spring streams, which all flow through the city (or rather under the city) into the river Wurm.
The water of the spring streams is only visible in a few places in the city and it is therefore difficult to understand the significance of the water for the city of Aachen. A high
The thermal water (Bad Aachen) is well known; the many fresh water springs are less well known. The aim is to present as many water projects as possible to the public at the same time on the weekend of July 5/6, 2025. In this way, we want to make a contribution to the "visualization of water diversity" in Aachen.
The colourful program of stream tours, informative exhibitions, art and activities is free of charge for visitors!
