Democracy bus tour starts in Bad Kreuznach: Shaping the future!
On October 31, 2025, the Kornmarkt in Bad Kreuznach was the meeting point for a special event: the Konrad Adenauer Foundation's Democracy Bus Tour. Politicians and citizens met here to discuss the values and relevance of democracy. Bundestag President Julia Klöckner (CDU) was there and passionately supported democratic efforts. Mayor Emanuel Letz and representatives of the Greens and SPD were also present and emphasized the importance of togetherness in society. The bus tour has the clear goal of increasing awareness of democracy and actively involving citizens.
The event offered various workshops and an interactive voting box with the exciting title “If I were mayor…”, which gave participants the opportunity to think about their wishes for the city. Rhine newspaper reports that such activities aim to encourage citizens to actively participate in political processes and take responsibility.
Democracy figures on tour
But the democracy bus tour was not the only highlight in terms of strengthening democracy. The so-called Democracy Designer Tour is also underway and brings citizens and decision-makers together. The specially set up democracy bus tours the whole country and encourages people to share their personal concerns and suggestions for improvements to the mayor's office. Topics such as positive developments in the community and the challenges of today are the focus here. Shaping democracy together emphasizes that the aim is to promote citizens' commitment to democracy and to inform about the importance of an active civic life.
Another creative approach is the photo competition, which was created to make the power of community visible. The participants were invited to show their most beautiful moments of solidarity and team spirit. The best photos were awarded prizes and the winning works can be viewed under the “Photo Competition” section. Such actions not only help to strengthen the sense of community, but also show the importance of democracy in each and every one of us.
Overall, the events and measures show that the initiatives to promote democratic values in Bad Kreuznach and beyond are not only necessary, but also receive strong support. The commitment of politicians and citizens together can achieve a lot and keep democracy fresh. That's what really counts - because together we do it right!
