More than 30,000 people visited the Fuggerei NEXT500 Pavilion or were as a guest at one of the numerous events. The visitors came from the city, the region, and as tourists from around the world. Thousands of selfies and views with the pavilion were taken, shared or saved as a memory. The interest in the creation of Fuggerei NEXT500 was very high, as was the willingness to donate: 7,300 Euro were donated to the climate forest of the Fugger foundations and to the Fuggerei charitable foundation – thank you! Other great figures: 3,181 people played on the interactive media stations in the pavilion. The high score in »Build your own Fuggerei of the future« was an incredible 4,750 points. And 4,808 peoples worked together on the virtual picture of the world as a response to seven global challenges. The feedback on the Fuggerei NEXT500 was enormous – and above all unbelievable good! Many people were positively surprised by how many varied, future-proof principles were embodied by the Fuggerei and how with them it offers society much more than a historic idyll with vine-covered houses.
