Saxony: Former military airfield in Grossenhain is to become an industrial site

Dresden (dpa / sn) - The former military airfield Grossenhain is to become an industrial site. The state of Saxony, the city of Grossenhain and the district of Meissen have agreed on this in a declaration of intent. "Investments and settlement decisions in the past have shown how important it is to make space provisions for large-scale projects," explained Head of State Oliver Schenk (CDU). If you own such areas and the basic preparatory work has already been completed, investors can get started quickly.

According to the plans, 145 hectares of buildable industrial space are to be created on the site. According to the State Chancellery, this is one of the largest contiguous settlement areas in East Germany. Saxony owns the area. Contaminated parts of the former airfield have already been rehabilitated at a cost of millions, it said.
