Measures for Climate Change Adaptation – Areas of Heavy Rainfall Prevention and Listed Garden and Park Facilities

The funding measure supports investments and projects in Brandenburg aimed at adapting to climate change. The focus is on precautionary measures against heavy rainfall and the preservation of listed garden and park landscapes. Public institutions, non-profit organizations, and private individuals can apply for grants covering investment costs, planning and engineering services, as well as conservation and restoration measures. The program runs until December 31, 2027, and is primarily targeted at municipal authorities, operators, and owners of historic green spaces, as well as other stakeholders in the field of climate adaptation. A key emphasis lies on the combination of sustainable heavy rainfall prevention and heritage conservation care to enhance water management resilience and preserve cultural heritage.

A prerequisite for funding is proof of the funding location in Brandenburg, the listed status of the garden and park landscapes, and a well-founded presentation of the planned climate adaptation measures. Eligible applicants include, among others, public institutions, non-profit organizations, and private owners. Eligible costs include structural investments, technical planning, and conservation work, but not ongoing operational or maintenance costs. Selection is based on the contribution to heavy rainfall prevention, heritage conservation aspects, and the cost-benefit ratio. Required documents include a detailed project description, cost estimates, a site plan, and official proof of the listed status. Applications can be submitted until December 31, 2027, offering a valuable opportunity to effectively address climate change locally and sustainably secure historically significant park landscapes.
