Saxony's head of government Michael Kretschmer has ventured up high. The CDU politician came to the opening of a so-called Skywalk in the Sonnenlandpark Lichtenau in Central Saxony - and tried out the new attraction for himself. At a height of 35 meters, the 51-year-old walked across the 72-meter-long walkway between a pyramid with a viewing platform and a giant slide tower. The Prime Minister then slid down a tube slide.
The Sonnenlandpark is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year - and has invested. The giant slide and the pyramid were built last fall, and now the Skywalk has been added. According to the theme park, the new attractions cost a total of around three million euros.
