The Baroque city offers special programs for people with disabilities, enabling those with visual impairments or mobility challenges, for example, to experience the city’s beauty in different ways. Our goal: Everyone who is interested—regardless of their disability—should be able to experience Fulda as a unique travel destination.
On the Road with a Bicycle Rickshaw
What’s a common sight in India is a real eye-catcher here. And it’s practical, too—the electric bicycle rickshaw from the Interest Group for an Accessible Fulda e.V. Anyone who has difficulty walking can simply relax and be driven through Fulda’s streets.
Portable Wheelchair Ramp
For anyone using a wheelchair or walker, the city of Fulda provides a free, adjustable-length suitcase ramp at the centrally located Hotel Platzhirsch, which makes it easy to navigate stairs and elevation changes ranging from 30 to just under 40 centimeters.
City Models You Can Touch
City models provide orientation and a bird’s-eye view of the city. What makes the models at Bonifatiusplatz and Universitätsplatz special is that they offer a tactile experience for both sighted and blind people alike.
We are certified: "Travel for Everyone"
Whether you’re a person who uses a wheelchair, is blind or deaf, or has a cognitive disability—everyone is welcome at the Fulda Tourist Information Center to access information in an accessible environment.
Website in Easy-to-Read Language
The city of Fulda’s tourism website is also available in easy-to-read language. This allows people with cognitive disabilities to learn about what the city has to offer.
Take a break Snacks and playgrounds
Everyone gets hungry or thirsty eventually. Not to mention the need to charge around and let off some steam. Take a break, enjoy a snack or head to a play park. Then continue on your journey of discovery through Fulda with renewed vigour!
