City Garden Zug / Planetage landscape + Ramser Schmid

The former arsenal area in the city of Zug to be re-shaped essentially comprises the space between the Zugerberg- and the Kirchenstrasse, with St. Oswalds-Church and both locations of the city- and the cantonal library of Zug. The client and area owner wanted a public city garden, connected to the existing pedestrian network of the old town, which should also link the location of the main library building to the location of the reading room. The particular challenge was, that this place is occupied by a large-scale public parking garage, which is partially visible, protrudes from the sloped terrain and its driveway intersects the area, since the 70s.
