Bürgerinitiative Saaletal e.V.

About us

Our citizens' initiative wants to bring the beauty and threat of the "Lower Saale Valley" to a wide audience with lectures, excursions, discussions, film evenings and much more. Also, the possibilities of a touristic use should be investigated more than before, so that some jobs can be created. A sensible touristic use would create long-term jobs for the local residents. The A143 highway, on the other hand, only provides employment for some people during the short construction period. In the long run, however, tourism suffers because the landscape loses its attractiveness due to the fragmentation.
