Monheim am Rhein now has its very own jungle! When the former playground in Wilhelm-Leuschner-Straße started showing its age, it was replaced by a brand new climbing playground with an exciting jungle theme. The redesign of the playground, located in the southern part of a site measuring over 47,000 square feet, was influenced by the pre-existing stock of trees surrounding it. When a public meeting was held, the “jungle” theme was the preferred choice of the local children and youths.
