EUROPAN is the biggest design competition for urban planning and architecture. The 13th edition begins on 2 March 2015 at around 50 sites throughout Europe. In the context of the project, more than 2,000 young architects and planners address the current issues facing urban planning and develop visionary ideas and strategic concepts for selected situations in various locations around Europe.
This year Landsberg am Lech is also taking part with a local recreation area to the south of the city. The 3C-Carbon Group AG's Lechrain Technology Park is at the centre of the competition area for “Europan 13” (marked in yellow), and is to be expanded to the North with an industrial residential area.
