Burgdorf honors new medal carrier: commitment to culture and community

Burgdorf, a city that is known for its strong voluntary commitment, has once again expressed its appreciation for outstanding citizens. The city has been giving the citizens' medal since 2002 to honor the voluntary commitment of people. This year the city and its residents are happy about new winners: Heidi Rust, Matthias Schorr and Rolf Hoppe, who were honored for their services in the community. A total of 38 citizens in Burgdorf have already been considered with this award.

Heidi Rust, which is called "living memory of city history", has researched the history of Burgdorf together with Dieter Heun for many years. Their passion and dedication led to the publication of eleven books in which significant aspects of local history are recorded. Rust thus makes an invaluable contribution to the preservation of the city's cultural heritage.

Matthias Schorr, another award winner, has played a central role in the Scena Art Association since its foundation. He has enriched the cultural landscape in Burgdorf by creating a space for artistic diversity through exhibitions, readings and other events. Schorr also actively supports the Senior Council, for which the city recognizes its extensive commitment.

Rolf Hoppe was honored for his tireless efforts in the shooting system. As a long -time commander of the Burgdorf shooting club, he not only preserved the rifle culture, but also strengthened the community and made the rifle system alive for all generations. His efforts have contributed to the fact that traditions continue to be celebrated and valued.

The honors illustrate the important role of volunteering in Burgdorf and the city administration is proud to have such committed citizens who are intensively committed to the community. The medal stands not only for personal achievements, but also for the recognition of the appreciation that the city has towards its most influential members.
