Chemnitz-Facts
    - Good to know

    Walking time 

    Chemnitz has 3,291 km of streets and paths. If you wanted to walk them all, assuming you walked four kilometers an hour, eight hours a day, it would take you 103 days. And, when you need to get home there are 533 bus and tram stops, and subway and railway stations in Chemnitz.

    Brightness 

    Assuming that every kilometer of street in Chemnitz has an average of 33 street lamps with 50W of power, then Chemnitz has more than 108,605 street lamps, which use 5.4 megawatts of electricity per hour. Over a number of years, that adds up to the amount of energy produced by a volcanic eruption.

    Local recreation 

    With a total area of 2.8 square kilometers, public green spaces and parks make up 1.3% of Chemnitz’s total area, 221 square kilometers. That means each of Chemnitz’s 243,089 residents has an average of 11.7 square meters – less than most large Zoo animals!

    Nightlife 

    When people in Chemnitz want to go out, they are spoilt for choice; the city has more than 96 cafés, restaurants, bars, ice-cream parlors, beer gardens, cinemas, nightclubs and theatres. If they were all lined up along a single street, it would need to be at least 1 km long.

    Tourism 

    More than 279 sights and monuments, and far more than 1,418 retailers, mean there is plenty of sightseeing to do in Chemnitz. Feeling tired? After a hard day visiting all the cultural attractions in the city, shopping or a night at the theatre, Chemnitz offers more than 42 hotels, youth hostels and camp sites.
