Construction has officially commenced on a new kindergarten in Au/Hallertau on Schlesische Straße. The project represents a 9.2 million euro investment intended to accommodate six groups of children.

The development follows eighteen months of planning and a period of local controversy. A citizens' initiative had previously opposed the new construction, advocating instead for the renovation of existing facilities. Although the opposition reached the administrative court, the challenge failed in early 2026. During the groundbreaking ceremony, Mayor Holger Nick emphasized the necessity of investing in children and called for “community reconciliation” following the intense local debate.
