Hanau mourns for Stefan Bahn: Sports and cultural designers died with 56

Mayor Claus Kaminsky and city councilor Beate Funck commemorate the late Stefan Bahn, an outstanding player in Hanau's sports and cultural life. The 56-year-old, who, as chairman of the "Funding Association for the Carousel in the Hanau-Wilhelmsbad State Park," was significantly involved in the renovation of the historical carousel, died on Tuesday. "His name will always be connected to the carousel's renaissance," says Kaminsky. Under Bahn's management, the carousel was reopened in 2016 after a long renovation and has been a popular attraction in the region since then.

In addition to his commitment to the carousel, Bahn also worked tirelessly for mass sports. He was active as chairman in the sports group of the Main-Kinzig district and fought to reduce the bureaucracy for volunteers to improve their working conditions. "With his death, the city of Hanau loses an outstanding personality and a passionate colleague," said Kaminsky. Bahn's decades of volunteering leaves deep traces in the city that are not forgotten.
