Dessau-Roßlau: BUGA 2035 - A milestone for urban development!
On July 2, 2025, a significant development is underway in Dessau-Roßlau: The city has received approval to conclude the implementation contract for the Federal Garden Show (BUGA) 2035. On June 27, 2025, the State Administration Office informed the city of this important step, which heralds an exciting future for the region. Mayor Dr. Robert Reck will sign the contract with the Deutsche Bundesgartenschau-Gesellschaft mbH (DBG) and thus officially initiate the founding of the BUGA company. In this context, Reck praises BUGA 2035 as a motor for urban development, which will bring a lot of funding to Dessau-Roßlau. verwaltung.dessau-rosslau.de also sees it this way and emphasizes the country's significance of the project.
The path to BUGA 2035 began in 2019, when the first discussions took place between the city and the DBG. The city council unanimously decided to move forward with the application in March 2023, which was supported by a feasibility study and the support of the state government. In May 2023, the BUGA commission visited Dessau-Roßlau and finally gave the application the green light at a DBG board meeting. “A city becomes BUGA” is the motto of this application, which aims to achieve comprehensive urban development for Dessau-Roßlau, as [bundesgartenschau.de](https://www.bundesgartenschau.de/aktuell/dbg-news/nachrichten/buga-2035-dbg- Nimm-bewerbung-dessau-rosslaus-an.html) reports.
Goals and visions
The BUGA 2035 will not only be a festival of flowers and plants, but is also intended to provide a sustainable development boost for the entire region. Since 1951, the BUGA has been an important event that takes place every two years and attracts millions of visitors. Cities like Magdeburg and Cottbus have already benefited from similar events and can look back on positive changes. The city of Dessau-Roßlau now has the chance to write its own success story and to present its treasures in the Dessau-Wörlitz Garden Realm and as the home of the Bauhaus to a broader public, as buga-dessau-rosslau.de states.
A central idea of BUGA 2035 is to include the entire urban space. The aim is to strengthen the city center and promote decentralized measures to link the districts. Citizens' engagement should not be neglected - they are actively involved in the design of the BUGA. The planned core areas are based on urban development goals and are intended to bundle projects to improve the quality of life, create tourist incentives and overcome climatic challenges.
A significant event for the region
The BUGA 2035 is intended not only to promote urban development, but also to provide a breath of fresh air for the local economy. According to Mayor Reck, this is an important event for the country and the official signing is scheduled for July 30, 2025. The implementation agreement will then pave the way for the establishment of “BUGA 2035 GmbH”. Given the great potential that the feasibility study uncovered, the city is ready to face the challenges of the future and use the BUGA as an opportunity to make Dessau-Roßlau even more attractive.
The population is looking forward to the coming months, in which concrete projects will be developed. BUGA 2035 promises not only a colorful floral display, but also a transformation of the city that will benefit both residents and visitors.
