The district building in Baden has been refurbished since March with ongoing operations. According to the media release, all natural stone and artificial stone components are being restored and the facade base plaster partially replaced. The construction work will be completed in October 2021. Under the project management of the real estate department of the city of Baden as the client, the work is strictly based on the historical model. The construction project is being accompanied by Heiko Dobler, building consultant for the cantonal monument preservation department.
The model for the renovation of the former schoolhouse, which was built in 1856/57, is the facade of the renovated Ochsen branch in the spa district. In the course of the renovation work, the existing plastic-contaminated plaster was completely milled off and a new lime plaster was applied based on the historical model. The facade was then given a new coat of paint and all 108 wooden windows were replaced. Both the planned construction time and the budget can presumably be adhered to, according to the statement from the city of Baden.
During the renovation work, two special factors had to be taken into account. On the one hand, there are nesting sites for the protected swifts and alpine swifts. The upper part of the scaffolding was designed accordingly by mid-April. "This meant that suitable nesting sites were available to the birds returning from the south in good time," the city councilor in charge Philippe Ramseier is quoted as saying.
Furthermore, special security requirements of the canton police and the district prison as tenants of the district building had to be met. For example, a three-meter-high board wall and a barbed wire at the end were installed.
