When Cities Breathe: Trees as Climate Protectors in Landshut

This City Forum focuses on Monday, September 21, 2026, on a topic that is becoming increasingly important for Landshut and many other cities: the underestimated power of trees in climate change. At the Volkshochschule Landshut, current environmental knowledge meets concrete urban development – comprehensible, close to practice, and looking towards the future.

Why Urban Greenery Makes a Difference

Heat, heavy rain, and extreme weather have long shaped the daily life of modern cities. The lecture illustrates how trees provide shade, cool the air, and store water. This contributes significantly to a more pleasant urban climate, greater climate protection, and better biodiversity. This is where the event experience begins: fact-based, vivid, and with a clear focus on quality of life in urban spaces.

Research Meets Urban Development

Speaker Prof. Dr. Stephan Pauleit brings scientific expertise in landscape development. He heads the Chair for Strategy and Management of Landscape Development at the Technical University of Munich and focuses on green infrastructure and climate-adapted urban development. Those interested in urban planning, sustainability, and future-oriented neighborhoods will find a lecture with substance and relevance here.

An Evening for Everyone Who Wants to Keep Their City Alive

The City Forum connects the Christian Educational Institute Landshut, the Protestant Educational Institute, and the vhs Landshut in an established format for social topics. In the atmosphere of the lecture hall, space for inspiration, exchange, and new perspectives on the city of tomorrow is created. Admission is based on donations, and for organizational reasons, registration is recommended.

Conclusion: A Lecture with Impact

When Cities Breathe... is more than an environmental lecture. The event combines expertise, local relevance, and tangible impulses for a livable city. Anyone who wants to understand how trees make Landshut more resilient should experience this evening live.
