33 Million Euros Approved for Monuments in Saxony-Anhalt - Saxony-Anhalt invests €33M to restore historic landmarks across the region
Last year, the State Administrative Office of Saxony-Anhalt allocated around €33 million to preserve historical buildings across the region. The funding supported a wide range of projects, from small repairs to large-scale renovations. Both public institutions and private owners received financial assistance for heritage conservation work.
Out of nearly 300 applications, 125 projects were chosen for funding. These included initiatives led by municipalities, cultural institutions, and private property owners. The selected schemes covered everything from minor restorations to major structural improvements.
Private owners also benefited, with roughly 30 applications approved. Grants for these individuals varied significantly in size. The smallest award, just under €1,500, went towards restoring two stairwell windows in a Quedlinburg residential building. At the other end of the scale, the heritage-compliant renovation of the historic banquet hall at Magdeburg’s Studiokino cinema received €200,000. The Landesverwaltungsamt oversaw the distribution of funds, ensuring compliance with heritage protection standards. Projects were assessed based on their contribution to preserving the region’s architectural legacy.
The €33 million investment highlights Saxony-Anhalt’s commitment to maintaining its cultural heritage. Grants covered a broad spectrum of work, from delicate window repairs to the full refurbishment of historic venues. Successful applicants will now proceed with their projects, safeguarding the region’s built history for future generations.
