PLAYPARC has created a unique combination of history, fantasy and modern play fun with the customised ‘Holsterturm’ playground attraction in Nieheim. Inspired by the town's 700-year-old landmark, the play tower delights children and adults alike and has already been hailed by the press as ‘the crowning glory of all playground plans in Nieheim’. With its authentic stone block look, castle battlements, arched gates and lookouts, the ‘Holster Tower’ invites children into a medieval play world. The detailed design stimulates the imagination and creates space for adventurous themed play. Whether as a knight, princess, merchant or castle dweller - there are no limits to creative role play.
A special highlight is the ground-floor cheese shop, where the chubby cheese tester ‘Mausi’ lives. This lovingly integrated element with a local connection also captivates children and turns the playground into a place full of stories and movement.
The path to the top of the tower leads over several challenging climbing levels and rewards you with a fantastic view of the real Holster Tower. The return to the bottom is a bouncy ride down one of the two stainless steel tube slides, which have been designed for different age groups. Even more action is provided by the ‘LUUPZ 15’ leaning longbow carousel, which offers children aged 5 and over an exciting dynamic.
In spring 2025, the playground will be expanded to include a barrier-free EPDM area and the ‘Tivat’ inclusion carousel. This will also allow people in wheelchairs to experience physical forces and have fun together.
PLAYPARC is delighted with the positive feedback and is proud to have once again fulfilled the wishes of children, citizens and planners.
