Pending Translation: Wurzeln schlagen für Wolfsburg
Your personal donation tree
Trees are the green lungs of our planet. They clean the air, provide valuable habitats and create oases of well-being in the midst of the urban hustle and bustle. With your donation, you can actively contribute to their protection, preservation and a better urban climate. Support us in shaping a greener, more liveable future.
Donation trees are a lasting memory and can be given as a gift for any occasion. With your donation, the city of Wolfsburg can plant additional trees in public green spaces, on streets and in squares. You can make a contribution to climate protection with a donation of as little as EUR 20.00.

Mit einer Spende von 400,00 Euro pflanzen wir einen Baum in Ihrem Namen.
In dieser Pauschale sind enthalten:
- die Beschaffung und Pflanzung eines Baumes in Baumschulqualität
- vertraglich festgelegte Entwicklungspflege
Nicht enthalten ist eine optional erhältliche Widmung: Eine 11 x 11 cm große Edelstahlplakette auf einer witterungsbeständigen Palisade aus Douglasienholz mit Ihrem persönlichen Widmungstext.
Die Kosten für diese zusätzliche Widmung belaufen sich auf derzeit 110,19 Euro für die Palisade und circa 60,00 Euro für die Edelstahlplakette. Suchen Sie sich bequem von zu Hause einen geeigneten Standort aus unserer interaktiven Karte aus.
Die Auswahl und Prüfung eigener Standorte ist leider nicht möglich. Wir bemühen uns, für die Stadtteile, in denen dies möglich ist, Standorte für Spendenbäume vorzuhalten.
Außerdem erhalten Sie für die Baumspende auf Wunsch eine Spendenquittung. Für die Widmung ist das Ausstellen einer Spendenquittung nicht möglich.
Collection tree donation
From a donation of 20.00 euros, you have the opportunity to participate in a collective tree donation from the city of Wolfsburg. As soon as enough money has been collected to plant a donation tree, the city of Wolfsburg will use the donations to finance new or replanting in the city area.
It is not possible to place a personal dedication before donating trees.

In beiden Fällen kommen Kosten von bis zu 170,19 Euro auf Sie zu, welche sich in 110,19 Euro für die Palisade und weiteren circa 60,00 Euro für die Widmung aufteilen.
Die Übersichtskarte befindet sich im stetigen Wandel, sodass die Standorte in gewissen Zeiträumen variieren. Weitere potenzielle Pflanzstandorte werden sukzessive eingetragen. Wir bitten Sie, sich bestmöglich auf die vorgeschlagenen Standorte je Ortschaft zu beschränken. Sollten für einen Ortsteil keine Spendenbäume angeboten werden, dann melden Sie sich bitte bei uns.
The overview map is constantly changing, so the locations vary over certain periods of time. Further potential planting locations will be added successively. We ask you to limit yourself as much as possible to the suggested locations per village. If no donation trees are offered for a district, please contact us.
