Burggrumbach Castle Terrace: Safety achieved with new railings!
In the tranquil community of Burggrumbach, security at the historic castle complex has taken a big step forward. Extensive maintenance and security measures have recently been carried out to secure the terrace area in the north-western part of the castle. What’s special about it? This work was carried out primarily by volunteers, making the already attractive castle even more attractive.
As the Main post reported, the need for fall protection was determined by an occupational safety specialist. On this basis, the church foundation plans to build a stable railing made of round rods, which will then be galvanized and painted anthracite. The special feature: The assembly can be carried out by the dedicated community members themselves, which significantly reduces costs.
Leisure activities with state support
The regional budget from which the financing for the project comes comes from the Integrated Rural Development (ILE) in the north of Würzburg. This is important support for many projects in the region. Like the information from the ILE website As a result, a total of 100,000 euros will be available for 2023, which will be distributed across 16 small projects. The castle project benefits from funding of up to 80 percent of the costs, which significantly reduces the financial burden on the community.
A total of an estimated 80 hours of work were spent installing the railings, which have already proven their worth. The four community members completed the work in just five days. This not only included cutting and drilling, but also electroplating and thread cutting of the individual parts.
Volunteering has an impact
However, the volunteer work goes beyond the new railing. The railings on the outside stairs to the palace and the cellar were also renewed, making the entire castle courtyard safer and more attractive. In addition, the terrace area has now been provided with solid fall protection over a length of around 45 meters, which not only ensures the safety of visitors, but also preserves the historical atmosphere of the castle.
The support from the ILEK regional budget shows how important such projects are for village development. This not only preserves traditional structures, but also creates new incentives that contribute to increasing the quality of life in the community.
