Get ready Neuruppin! Federal President, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, is dropping by for a three-day visit starting July 1, 2025, as part of his "Local Time Germany" tour. This quaint town in northern Brandenburg will be his 16th stop on this journey where he aims to connect with citizens outside the federal capital's bubble.
This visit is a golden opportunity for the residents of Neuruppin (population approximately 32,000) to engage with one of the country's top political leaders. The President has plans for a series of engaging events, including meetings with local politicians, a visit to the Technical Relief Agency, discussions with students, and even an exchange at the local court on combating domestic violence.
That's not all! The President is also looking forward to meeting with the canoe club and participating in a dragon boat race on the Ruppiner See. He's all about keeping things interesting!
"The Federal President wants to be accessible and seek spontaneous encounters," announced the Federal Presidential Office. He yearns to hear about the hopes and fears of the people, and understand their opinions on the state of democracy and its institutions.
Did you know that Neuruppin is famous for being the birthplace of renowned figures such as writer Theodor Fontane, architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel, and author Eva Strittmatter? It's no surprise then that this lovely town, nestled by scenic lakes, boasts a rich cultural heritage.
