- The City of Cologne closed the playgrounds on Rathenauplatz in March 2019 as a precaution after heavy metal was found in the upper soil layers; remediation started in April 2020, with the topsoil stripped off and disposed of at a landfill. Children from the Stephan-Lochner-Schule took part in a participation process for the redesign, and the two new playground areas were released in December 2020 at a construction cost of around 1,750,000 euros.
