Liebesbriefe an Gütersloh
Liebesbriefe an Gütersloh
Zentrenmanagement initiiert Aktion zum Valentinstag
Unter dem Motto „Schreib Deinem Gütersloh einen Liebesbrief“ lädt das Zentrenmanagement, ein Zusammenschluss aus Gütersloh Marketing, dem städtischen Fachbereich Stadtplanung und der Wirtschaftsförderung concept GT, zur Kampagne „Liebesbriefe an Gütersloh“ ein. Passend zum Valentinstag will die Kampagne sichtbar machen, was Gütersloh liebeswert macht und Bürger*innen die Möglichkeit geben, ihre Stadt einmal aus einer ganz persönlichen Perspektive zu beschreiben. Dabei geht es bewusst darum, den Blick auf die positiven Seiten zu lenken und die kleinen und großen Freuden des Lebens in der Dalkestadt in den Fokus zu rücken.
Die Teilnahme ist einfach: Liebesbriefe können in einen eigens aufgestellten Briefkasten auf dem Konrad-Adenauer-Platz – integriert in das „I Love GT“-Logo – eingeworfen werden. Dafür können Postkarten genutzt werden, die in der Tourist-Information und in teilnehmenden Innenstadtgeschäften ausliegen. Alternativ können die Liebesbriefe auch per E-Mail an liebesbriefe@guetersloh.de gesendet oder direkt auf der Website www.stadt.gt/liebesbriefe geschrieben werden.
per E-Mail an liebesbriefe@guetersloh.de
Die Aktion läuft bis zum 13. März. Ausgewählte Einsendungen werden im Anschluss veröffentlicht.

Wall Painting at the ZOB
Gütersloh Marketing beautifies ZOB
Colorful wall painting by Maik Enge
The central bus station (ZOB) in Gütersloh will shine in new splendor in November: with the support of McDonald's, Gütersloh Marketing (gtm) has commissioned a creative wall painting in Strengerstraße, which will be completed in a few days. Advertising painter Maik Enge developed a motif for it that takes up the themes of mobility, urban life and Gütersloh sights in keeping with the surroundings. The wall painting is intended to make the area more welcoming and inviting for travelers, schoolchildren, commuters and visitors to the city centre.
„The beautification of the ZOB is part of our ongoing efforts to make the city center area more attractive and liveable,“ explains Clara Abelmann, Head of City and Tourism Management at Gütersloh Marketing. „With projects like the historically designed electricity boxes last year or the Gütersloh Spring Street Art Festival, we are showing how art and creativity can be brought into the city center.“ The idea for the beautification campaign came about as part of the center management.

Painted electricity boxes in the city center
Historically designed electricity boxes beautify the city center
Since the beginning of September, historically decorated electricity boxes can be discovered in the streets of Gütersloh city center.
In close cooperation with the Gütersloh city archives, historical motifs were selected for the design, which were interpreted by the artists in their own style. The boxes, which were provided by Netzwerkgesellschaft Gütersloh, shine partly in bright colors, partly in a historical sepia look - fitting for the upcoming city anniversary.
Konrad-Adenauer-Platz
The electricity box on Konrad-Adenauer-Platz was designed by the two artists Nils Neumeyer and Lukas Kröger, who work together under the name "Meradookie". One side of the box shows Güth's Marie in front of a row of historic half-timbered houses. On the other side of the box, the artists designed the former armory of the volunteer fire department on Strenger Straße.
Max-Reinhardt-Straße
The electricity box in Max-Reinhardt-Straße was also designed by "Meradookie". Here they reinterpreted the former triangular square based on original works.
Strenger Street
Artist Enrico Lein has combined two historical motifs on the electricity box he painted. On the one hand, Lina Stern is depicted in the immediate vicinity of the stumbling block that was dedicated to her in 2006. Lina Stern worked as a piano teacher and lived in Gütersloh until she was deported to Theresienstadt at the age of 83. The other is the home of former councillor Carl Heinrich Strenger, who donated his house to the city as a poorhouse after his death.
Ernst-Buschmann-Straße
The former principal of the Altstadtschule Ernst Buschmann and the Buschmann chronicle he wrote can be seen in Ernst-Buschmann-Straße. This electricity box was designed by the artist Sven-Rowlands-Hügle.
Theodor-Heuss-Platz
The old Paul Thöne Halle can now be seen on Theodor-Heuss-Platz opposite the Edelweiss restaurant. The artist Sven Rowlands-Hügle has transformed another box right next to it into a beer bottle from Richard Plange's old Gütersloh brewery.
Theodor-Heuss-Platz
Another electricity box on Theodor-Heuss-Platz was designed by Gütersloh graffiti artist Philipp Kowalski. It shows the water tower in front of a colorful background design.
