With the early coal phase-out in 2030, RWE Power AG, the federal government and the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia have agreed to preserve six former lignite villages in the Rhenish mining area. Morschenich-Alt is the first village to be revived. The village of Morschenich-Alt will once again become a lively part of the municipality of Merzenich. With funding from the federal government and the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia, the village is set to become the first “place of the future” in the Rhenish district. This is a milestone for structural change in the Rhenish district.

A peaceful Christmas. A contemplative turn of the year. A peaceful and fulfilling year 2023.

If we allow it, Advent is a cozy time – a time for reflection. We have illuminated the inside of the CUBITY Atelier House during the dark Advent and Christmas season – switching on a light as an inner and outer orientation. Because light is the source of life and means hope and warmth for us humans. Light allows us to be productive. It also gives us a sense of security. By illuminating our CUBITY, we send this hope out to people.
