Ride the Sky Over Neuss: The Thrill of the Rotating Gondolas

Take a leisurely spin in Neuss's rotating gondolas, each journey revealing city stats and captivating tales about the town and the Landesgartenschau. The five-minute ascent offers a striking panorama of the LAGA grounds, the harbor, and the city center - a sight that leaves the mayor awestruck.

Annette Nothnagel, LAGA GmbH's management, shares an interesting insight, "Wendersplatz serves as the connecting bridge between the LAGA grounds and the city center." Breuer eagerly anticipates a ripple effect in Neuss's retail and dining scene, courtesy of the LAGA. They aim to draw at least 650,000 visitors, boasting over 6,000 season ticket sales already. Breuer also calculates an average visitor spending of 20 euros on dining and shopping, making it a ripe opportunity for enticing offers from businesses.

Franz Thomas Schneider, the tower's owner, invested a lust-worthy four million euros into this venture, requiring a 22x19 meters footprint. Last year's Düsseldorf Rhine fair celebration was a resounding success, with anticipation high for Neuss's reaction. Schneider hints that the ticket prices are as yet unannounced, though he promises favorable rates for Landesgartenschau visitors. Annette Nothnagel encourages you to check local tourist info sites or contact the Neuss tourist office for up-to-date, precise pricing information.

Enjoy an alternative perspective of Neuss by exploring the connecting bridge, Wendersplatz, which links the LAGA grounds to the city center, providing a chance to embrace other lifestyle choices such as outdoor-living and home-and-garden. As LAGA attracts over 650,000 visitors, it's the perfect opportunity for local businesses to entice customers with dining and shopping offers that cater to this lifestyle shift in their home-and-garden sector.
