Urban development programs living centers, social cohesion and growth and sustainable renewal support Bavarian municipalities
Strengthening the town centers, promoting social cohesion and revival of fallow land
205 million euros from the federal and state governments for 444 cities and municipalities across Bavaria
Urban development is one of the most important instruments of urban development. This year, too, considerable funds from the three federal-state programs to Bavaria will flow again: In 2025, together with the federal government, we will provide more than 205 million euros for 444 cities and municipalities, said Bavarias Minister of Construction Christian Bernreiter. With these means, we support you in investing in your municipal infrastructure and increasing the quality of life for local people. In addition to large cities, especially the cities and municipalities in rural areas benefit from this.
With the help of urban development, cities and municipalities create attractive town centers and livable living environment with the Living Centers program. The Growth and Sustainable Renewal program helps the cities and municipalities to adapt their structural structures and public space to new and changing needs. The Social Cohesion program aims to increase the quality of living and life as well as the variety of uses in the quarters, to support the integration of all population groups and to strengthen cohesion in the neighborhood.
We support every municipality in finding precise solutions to cope with their urban planning challenges. Our urban development funding shines through versatility and simplicity, explains construction minister Bernreiter: Richtschnur is always our own urban development concept of every community. We offer the municipalities the best possible support in maximum freedom. This has been a success model for more than 50 years!
The impetus and bundling effect of urban development funding is literally: 1 euro government funding trigger a further 7 euros of public and private investments. This was recently confirmed in an expert opinion - as well as the positive contribution of urban development to municipal climate protection.
In the city of Donauworth, the renovation of the dance house can begin this year, which is closely linked to the history of Donauworth. The empty monument shapes the Reichstrasse and the city center. If the dance house opens its gates again with a colorful mix of public uses, not only will the building fill with life, but also gain the city center of attractiveness.
In the city of Waldershof, streets and footpaths in the vicinity of the recently renovated parish church are being redesigned with the support of the urban development funding. The newly built childrens house and the modernized school with a new sports hall will also benefit from the measure. In the future, an attractive public square with trees and benches will invite citizens to linger. The extensive renovation and new construction measures in the school district are thus graduated.
The city of Lichtenberg in Upper Franconia is building a sea stage for open -air concerts and other cultural experiences. This measure decisively contributes to the revival of the local recreation area in Frankenwaldsee. With funding, there were already lying meadows with benches, fireplaces, changing rooms and showers.
In Bavaria, 444 Bavarian municipalities are funded in the three federal-state city development programs living centers, social cohesion and growth and sustainable renewal. Together with the funds of the municipalities, a good 276 million euros are available for the projects. Citizens and local actors can get involved and are an important factor for success.
The funding is subject to the entry into force of the administrative agreement in 2025 after the counter -drawing of all 16 federal states.
