NeiSchmelz Community Garden
A garden for all interested gardeners on an industrial wasteland in Duddelange.
Initiative phase: Well established and running
In May 2018, the Neischmelz community garden was founded on a former industrial site in Duddelange. Due to the nature of the site, work is mainly done in raised beds. These, as well as the greenhouse, were built from recycled materials.
So far, the community garden is primarily intended as a transitional project, as a new ecological district is to be built on the site in the coming years.
The garden is managed by gardening enthusiasts. It is intended to serve as a place for socialising, meeting and exchanging ideas. All are welcome to come by on Saturday mornings between 10 am and 12 pm.
