New construction Großweidenmühlstraße

Project description

WBG Nürnberg Beteiligungs GmbH - a subsidiary of wbg Nürnberg - is to build a new care home on a site previously used as a garden in the St. Johannis district in the west of Nuremberg. In addition, subsidised flats will be built, some of which will be offered as senior citizens' flats. The approximately 5,900 m² site is located in the immediate vicinity of the Pegnitzgrund and borders on Brückenstrasse and Großweidenmühlstrasse.

On the basis of a preliminary competition, the site will be developed with an ensemble of three interconnected cubic buildings with an inner courtyard. From the six-storey building in the north to the five-storey eastern section - both of which will be the future care home - and a four-storey southern property with subsidised flats, the new building steps down towards Pegnitzgrund.

A fully inpatient care facility for a total of 122 residents will be built, based on the house community model. The figure includes 25 permanent short-term care places, a specialised residential area with 24 places for people with dementia, a facility for ‘younger people in need of care’ with 15 places, and 58 places for inpatient care.

In addition, there will be a day-care facility with 15 day-care places and a cafeteria, which will also be open to the neighbourhood. The dementia-sensitive design and the dementia roof garden, as well as the opening into the neighbourhood, make the facility a needs-based care facility.
