Parks & Gardens
87 official green spaces, including the well-known Bürgerpark Theresienstein and Untreusee, contribute to the attractiveness of the city and enrich the leisure activities on offer in Hof with their diverse recreational, play and sports facilities. Green spaces often serve as atmospheric backdrops for events and festivals.
Recreational and living spaces
Green spaces are not only recreational areas for people in the city, they are also valuable habitats for animals and plants and have a positive effect on the urban climate.
To ensure that as many people as possible, some of whom visit the parks for very different reasons, can enjoy Hof's green spaces, there are green space statutes that contain a number of rules for visiting green spaces for the benefit of the general public.
The gardening and construction management of the green spaces is carried out by the Green Spaces Department. As a rule, new designs are developed together with the urban planning department with the involvement of the public.
