The Town of Herzogenaurach participates in the project "ERH Barrier-free" initiated by the administrative district. A team of volunteer workers, supported by the AKTIV-SENIOREN BAYERN e.V. (Active Senior Citizens in Bavaria) takes care of the measuring and assessment of local objects.
The portal under www.herzogenaurach.huerdenlos.de provides detailed information about how to access and make use of buildings, stores, doctors' offices, restaurants, public places and ways in Herzogenaurach, as well as about specific access details, like stairs, elevators, or the width of the doors.
Any Herzogenaurach places already included in the portal have been divided into categories, like Authorities, or Gastronomy. With the help of volunteer workers, the senior citizens' office of Herzogenaurach has constantly extended the list of places.
