Munich to name new square after Edinburgh
A new civic square in the heart of Munich is to be named after
Edinburgh as part of celebrations to mark 50 years of friendship
between the two cities.
The “Edinburghplatz”, which is currently under construction in
Germany, will be the centrepiece of a whole new quarter gradually
being developed on the site of the former airport.
It will be surrounded by new housing, offices, shops, bars,
restaurants and a public park by the time it is unveiled by
Edinburgh’s Lord Provost Lesley Hinds in September.
The naming of the new public square is expected to be one of the
highlights of months of special events and activities being planned to
commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Capital being twinned with
Munich.
Edinburgh will host visits by a leading German “oompah” band and the
Bayern Munich youth football team as well as a five-strong folk band.
The two cities are to exchange exhibitions this year, athletes from
Munich and Edinburgh will take part in the marathons of the other
cities and school pupils will swap places for a week.
However, it is the honour of the “Edinburghplatz” that is expected to
be a high point of the programme of events.
Councillor Hinds said: “I think it is wonderful that an area of Munich
has been dedicated to Edinburgh, to mark the excellent relationship
that exists between the two cities.”
