Modernisation of the building at Pl. Metziga 25 with adaptation for the City Public Library in Leszno. Participation in culture is a condition for social revitalisation of Leszno.

For 2 years, Leszno has been a participant in the Ministerial Programme Modeling of Cities in which it implements the “New Tory – Leszzna Centre” project-strategy. One of its results is to identify the real needs of the local population in terms of revitalisation. The main conclusions are the identified deficit of space for the organisation of social-cultural events to counter social exclusion. Participation in culture is the achievements of civilisation, from which people at risk of social exclusion renounce first, without realising the impact of this decision on deepening the process of social exclusion. In the course of the work, it was found that almost in the centre of the crisis area at Pl. Metziga 25 destroys a beautiful, historic building, which, after its expansion and adaptation to new functions, can serve the local and sub-local community by filling the deficit of space for social-cultural activities.The project’s material scope includes a comprehensive modernisation and expansion of the existing building together with the immediate surroundings, so that the developed infrastructure is based on a broad spectrum of activities aimed at social inclusion of residents. The direct product of the project will be to create the high-quality infrastructure necessary for the operation of a modern community-oriented library (except book lending) as follows: workshops, integration classes, incubator of social economy entities or meeting place.Products of the project:-Above areas covered by revitalisation-0.26 ha (2020)-Public buildings. or commercially built or renovated in urban areas (usable)-3576.14 m² (2020)-Number of supported infrastructure facilities located in revitalised areas-1 pieces.
