3.375 million euros for Olpe: New town hall as a life center!

Big step for Olpe! The city is funded with a formative 3.375 million euros for the construction of a new town hall-a fantastic gift that sets the course for a blooming future!

President Heinrich Böckelühr presented the funding notice on Thursday to Mayor Peter Weber (CDU). With this generous financial injection, the planned town hall becomes the center of public life. The construction should not only take into account the latest new work concepts and climate protection ideas, but also combine the city library and a new city museum under one roof-a cultural center that is second to none!

a vision for the city

Mayor Weber emphasizes that the integrated urban development concept (ISEK) includes far -reaching measures that will revolutionize the cityscape. "Today's funding notice is the starting signal for our community center, the groundbreaking ceremony of which is planned in autumn 2025," he explains full of enthusiasm. The funding is to support the cities that fight with economic and demographic challenges. The new building will be built on the former station area and is intended to create synergies through interaction and exchange between different social actors.

Olpe received funding commitments of 750,000 euros in the years 2022 and 2023 to advance creative ideas for the redesign of the city. This initiative will not only improve the quality of life of the citizens, but also make an essential contribution to sustainable urban development. The upcoming transformations promise to catapult Olpe to a new era of urban life!
