Building regulations in Thüringen: what applies to prefabricated houses

Thuringia Building Code (ThürBO)

Legal basis: ThürBO of 13.03.2014, last amended 2024

The ThürBO 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
  • In the Thuringian Forest (Thüringer Wald), increased snow load
  • Flood protection along the Werra, Saale and Unstrut

Funding for prefab homes: KfW & TAB

The TAB programmes can be combined with the KfW. Funding rates are 20–24 percent.

Thuringia Family Programme (Thüringen Familien-Programm)
Repayment grant for families with children
Thuringia housing support (Thüringen Wohnraumförderung)
Income-dependent repayment grants
KfW 297/298 Climate-Friendly New Construction
Nationwide, up to 150,000 € per residential unit

Funding institution: TAB (the Thuringia development bank / Thüringer Aufbaubank)

What building land costs in Thüringen in 2026

70 € – 500 € per m² of building land

In the Slate Mountains (Schiefergebirge), the Eichsfeld and southern Thuringia, building land costs 70–180 €/m², in mid-range locations 150–280 €/m². Erfurt is at 320–480 €/m², Jena at 350–500 €/m² and Weimar at 280–450 €/m².

Load from snow and wind

Snow load zone
Zone 2, in the Thuringian Forest zone 3 to 4
Wind zone
Zone 1

In the Thuringian Forest (Thüringer Wald) around Oberhof and Schmiedefeld, snow loads of up to 4.5 kN/m² occur – a decisive structural factor.

Karst, sinkholes and mining

In southern and eastern Thuringia there are karst and salt areas such as the Southern Harz (Südharz) and the Kyffhäuser – a sinkhole survey is mandatory. Around Mansfeld and Sangerhausen, old mining also shapes the subsoil.
