Maxplatz is a public square in central Neu-Ulm, where colourful seating and pavement writing shape the setting. Its design presents the city’s modern side.

A state garden show prompted the square’s redesign, which introduced playful colours and oversized aphorisms across the paving. These large messages turn the ground into an artwork.

Maxplatz gives people space to meet, rest, pass through, or take in everyday activity around Neu-Ulm. Local gatherings also bring activity to the square.

Shops, cafés, and other urban amenities surround the central space, while its layout supports sitting and observing. The square has no large monument or historic building.

Instead, its bold colours, large lettering, and accessible public layout express Neu-Ulm’s contemporary character beside Ulm across the Danube. Maxplatz provides wheelchair-accessible public space in central Neu-Ulm.

Maxplatz connects urban design with daily city life and offers an art-focused view of Neu-Ulm’s public space. The square makes Neu-Ulm’s modern urban planning visible.
