Building regulations in Sachsen: what applies to prefabricated houses

Saxony Building Code (SächsBO)

Legal basis: SächsBO of 11.05.2016, last amended 2024

The SächsBO is largely based on the Model Building Code (MBO). Residential houses up to building class 3 can be erected under the simplified procedure.

These points builders should keep in mind

  • Setback areas: 0.4 H, at least 3 m
  • Parking-space requirement usually 1 per residential unit
  • Flood protection HQ100 along the Elbe and Mulde is strict
  • In the Ore Mountains, increased snow load to DIN EN 1991-1-3

Funding for prefab homes: KfW & SAB

The SAB programmes can be combined with the KfW. Families reach funding rates of 22–26 percent.

SAB Family Living (SAB Familienwohnen)
Repayment grant of up to 30,000 € for families
SAB Energy-Efficient Building (SAB Energetisches Bauen)
Reduced-interest loan of up to 100,000 €
KfW 297/298 Climate-Friendly New Construction
Nationwide, up to 150,000 € per residential unit

Funding institution: SAB (the Saxon development bank / Sächsische Aufbaubank)

80 € – 850 € per m² of building land

In the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge), Upper Lusatia (Oberlausitz) and the Vogtland, building land costs 80–180 €/m², in central Saxony (Mittelsachsen) 180–300 €/m². Chemnitz is at 250–400 €/m², Dresden at 500–850 €/m². In Leipzig it is 450–800 €/m² – with a sharply rising trend.

Load from snow and wind

Snow load zone
Zone 2 (most of the state), zone 3 to 4 in the Ore Mountains
Wind zone
Zone 1

In the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge) around Oberwiesenthal and Klingenthal, snow loads of up to 5 kN/m² occur – a decisive structural factor.

Mining, flooding and earthquakes

In the western Ore Mountains (Westerzgebirge), with their old ore and uranium-ore mining and the Wismut legacies, as well as in Lusatia with its lignite open-cast mining (LMBV), a mining information request is mandatory. Flood zones extend along the Elbe, Mulde and Weißeritz. In the Vogtland there is a weak earthquake zone (Z1).

Is a cellar worthwhile for a prefabricated house in Sachsen?

Around 50 % of prefab homes in Saxony get a basement, and in Dresden and Leipzig even around 60 % because of the scarce plots. A standard basement costs 28,000–50,000 €. In flood areas, a watertight tanked basement (Weiße Wanne) is advisable.
