The website of the town of Büchner has been technically modernized and redesigned – citizens benefit from improved clarity and better usability on smartphones
The town of Riedstadt, associated with Büchner, has completely redesigned its website. Since Tuesday, November 10, 2026, the town's homepage at www.riedstadt.de has featured a new design. In addition to a contemporary look, the focus was primarily on clearer navigation, improved usability on various devices, and updated content. The numerous digital services offered by the town administration should also be easier for residents to find in the future.
Technical modernization as a starting point
The redesign was initially prompted by a necessary technical update. For security reasons, the existing system software had to be replaced with a current version.
The city administration used this transition not only to renew the technical foundations, but also to completely revise the entire website.
The website was completely redesigned, both conceptually and editorially. The goal was to create a modern and sustainable information platform for citizens.
The work was carried out by employees of the city administration themselves.
Improved usability on smartphones and tablets
A particular focus was placed on user-friendliness.
The new homepage was designed so that the content can be displayed clearly on different screen sizes. This is intended to make it easier to use on desktop PCs as well as tablets and smartphones.
The new design is intended to offer advantages, especially for people who access information on the go using their mobile phones.
The structure of the website was also revised to make it easier to find the information you are looking for.
Online services are intended to eliminate the need for visits to the town hall
In addition to current information about the city, the homepage offers numerous digital services from the administration.
Many matters can already be handled online, without the need for a personal visit to the town hall.
The new design is intended to make these offers more easily accessible.
Furthermore, citizens can find information on numerous topics related to urban life. These include, among others, the city administration, children and young people, senior citizens, culture, leisure and sports, local politics, the environment, and the economy.
The content was reviewed, updated and editorially revised in cooperation with the relevant departments.
Mayor thanks digitalization officer
Julia Hahn, the digitalization officer for the city of Riedstadt, played a key role in the implementation of the project.
She oversaw the technical conversion, the conceptual realignment, and the restructuring of the content.
Mayor Marcus Kretschmann expressly acknowledged their efforts.
“A very special thank you goes to Julia Hahn as the digitalization officer, who has significantly advanced this project and implemented it with extraordinary dedication, from the technical conversion to the conceptual realignment, to the restructuring and revision of the content,” explained Kretschmann.
With the new homepage, the city of Büchner wants to present its digital information and service offerings in a contemporary way and further simplify access to the city administration.
