    Work-Life-Balance Motiv Kaiserpfalz: Peter Kamin Peter Motiv Kaiserpfalz: Gut leben und arbeiten. | Goslar in Worten, Bildern und Zahlen 1 „ Der Wirtschaftsstandort Goslar hat viel Kraft!” Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, Goslar allein auf eine über 1000jährige Geschichte, das Weltkulturerbe, die Kaiser- pfalz oder das reichhaltige Kultur- und Freizeitangebot zu beschränken, wird der Stadt nicht gerecht. Auch der Wirtschaftsstandort Goslar hat ganz viel Kraft. In Goslar lässt sich miteinander leben und arbeiten, und zwar richtig gut. Und an dieser Aussage lassen wir uns auch messen. Machen Sie sich selbst ein Bild: Auf den folgenden Seiten haben wir unsere Leistungen in Zahlen gefasst und in Szene gesetzt. Herzlich willkommen in Goslar. “The business location Goslar has many strengths!” Dear Readers, To just think of Goslar in terms of its 1000 years of history, cultural heritage, the Imperial Palace or its rich cultural offerings and leisure facilities would simply not do the city justice. Goslar is also a strong location for business. It is a city in which people can live and work in perfect balance. And this is a statement by which we can be measured. See for yourself: we have put together some figures on our performance on the following pages and set them in scene. Welcome to Goslar. Dr. Oliver Junk Oberbürgermeister der Stadt Goslar | Mayor of Goslar 2 3 WILLKOMMEN / WELCOME Weltkulturerbe: Goslar, die tausendjährige Kaiserstadt am Harz, bekannt für die Verleihung des Kaiserringpreises für moderne Kunst, lädt ein zu einer erlebnisreichen Zeitreise vom Mittelalter bis in die Gegenwart. Die besondere Atmosphäre Goslars, die Mischung aus Tradition, Geschichte und Moderne, wird bei einem Streifzug durch die zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe ernannte Altstadt besonders deutlich.

  • Jahresbericht Stiftung Unesco-Welterbe Im Harz
    UNESCO im WELTERBEHARZ © Stefan Sobotta © Stefan JAHRESBERICHT STIFTUNG 2020 UNESCO-WELTERBE IM HARZ © Hansjörg Hoerseljau © Hansjörg 2 EDITORIAL Glückauf liebe Leserinnen und Leser, im Jahr 2020 wurde die Arbeit und das Wirken der Kulturschaffenden, wie das Leben von allen Menschen, maßgeblich durch die Corona-Pandemie geprägt. Bundesweit wurden Kultureinrichtungen temporär geschlossen, so auch die muse- alen Einrichtungen im UNESCO-Welterbe im Harz, die für rund vier Monate keine Besucherinnen und Besucher empfan- gen durften. Diese Situation führte einige Institutionen an die Grenze der ökonomischen Belastbarkeit und hatte aufgrund von Kurzarbeit auch erhebliche wirtschaftliche Konsequenzen für die Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter. Das Erarbeiten von Hygienekonzepten und der schließlich dadurch mögliche eingeschränkte Führungsbetrieb bestimmten die Arbeit des lau- fenden Jahres. Gleichzeitig machten es die Maßnahmen zum Gesundheitsschutz nicht leicht, unseren Gästen ein inspirie- rendes Welterbe-Erlebnis zu bieten. Und während diese Zeilen entstehen, befindet sich das UNESCO-Welterbe im Harz immer noch im Lockdown … Im Labyrinth der verbogenen Schätze Doch das Jahr 2020 war für das UNESCO-Welterbe im Harz weit mehr. Es war ein wichtiges Jahr für die Inwertsetzung: Das TRAFO-Projekt mit der Kulturstiftung des Bundes erreichte im September seinen Höhepunkt, indem in den Oberharzer Einrichtungen von Sankt Andreasberg, Bad Grund, Wildemann und Claus- thal-Zellerfeld neue Museumsbausteine und Installationen in Betrieb genommen wurden. Es war ein wichtiges Jahr für die Vermittlung: Im Juli konnte im Herrenhaus des Klosters Walkenried das erste Welterbe- Infozentrum eröffnet werden. Fortan bietet es den Besucherinnen und Besuchern einen Überblick über das Harzer Laby- rinth der verborgenen Schätze. Auch in den Bereichen der Erschließung, Erhaltung, Kommunikation und des Managements konnte die Stiftung das Welt- erbe voranbringen – doch lesen Sie selbst.
