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
More than 33 million euros from the federal and state governments for 63 Swabian communities
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, including more than 33 million euros for Swabia, 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 lovable town centers and livable living environments 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.
The city of Mindelheim renovates a monument in Mindelgasse, in which the city library is currently housed. The attic is expanded and the courtyard is redesigned: new rooms for events and thus an attractive meeting place in the city center are being built.
The city of Illertissen begins with the renovation and conversion of the old fire station to the community center. The project uses the gray energy bound in the building in an exemplary manner. When choosing the building materials, attention is paid to a good CO2 balance and durability.
The city of Gunzburg is already implementing measures in connection with the State Garden Show 2029. With the support of the urban development funding, the station forecourt and the slope garden are redesigned. The public places, streets and green areas are upgraded to attractive city rooms. Particular attention is paid to accessibility and climate adjustment.
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.
