"Volksbank donates newly constructed preschool, a joyful haven for children - Kita Unterburg"
Modern Daycare Center Opens in Solingen
The Kindertagesstätte Unterburg in Solingen has officially opened its doors, marking a significant investment in the city's future and the well-being of its families [1][3]. Funded and built by Volksbank Bergisches Land, this state-of-the-art daycare center is equipped with modern construction, flood resistance, and barrier-free design features.
Located in a flood-prone area, the new daycare center incorporates improved flood protection measures to ensure resilience against flooding, a crucial aspect given regional concerns about water damage [1]. The facility, which covers 555 square meters on a single floor, accommodates 60 childcare places across three groups, including spaces for children under three years old (U3) [1][3].
The outdoor area, covering around 1000 square meters, is currently under development and is expected to be completed in the next few weeks [1][3]. The daycare center primarily serves children from the Unterburg district and surrounding areas.
Volksbank Bergisches Land completed the project within the scheduled timeframe and budget, handing over the finished building to the city of Solingen. This move underscores their commitment to regional social responsibility [1][2].
In addition to Solingen, Volksbank Bergisches Land supports similar daycare centers in the region, such as Remscheid, that combine innovative technology and accessibility features to serve community needs. However, specific details about other sites require further data [2].
Key features of the Kindertagesstätte Unterburg include:
- Flood resistance: Enhanced flood protection designed into the new building.
- Barrier-free design: Ensuring accessibility for children with disabilities or special needs.
- Technological advancements: Modern construction and possibly smart facility features, though exact technologies were not detailed in the sources.
- Community investment: Providing 60 places, including for very young children (under 3 years), meeting a local demand for quality early childhood care.
Visitors can tour the bright, spacious rooms of the new daycare center, which was constructed in less than a year [1][2]. The new center, considered by architect Andreas Bona to be the most beautiful of the five daycare centers built by Volksbank in recent years, is a testament to Volksbank Bergisches Land’s role in promoting sustainable, socially responsible infrastructure that supports children’s growth in a safe, modern environment [1][2][3].
