State Prize for Building Culture 2025: Schleswig-Holstein awards sustainable building projects!
The State Prize for Building Culture 2025 in Schleswig-Holstein is in full swing and presents exciting developments in local building culture. Today, on September 15, 2025, it was announced that the Interior Minister of Schleswig-Holstein, Sabine Sütterlin-Waack, has awarded a total of seven buildings in various categories with the coveted prize. [Schleswig-Holstein] reports that this award recognizes outstanding achievements in the field of building culture, with the main focus being on resource-saving and affordable construction with high construction quality.
The main prize in 2025 went to the project “Revitalization of the Sterntalerweg high-rise building” in Lübeck, realized by the real estate company TRAVE in collaboration with ppp architekten + stadtplaner. An impressive example of modern building culture that is not only functional, but also enriches the cityscape.
Prize winners and submissions
A total of 50 projects were submitted, which illustrates the high competitiveness and great commitment in the industry. Sütterlin-Waack praised the quality of the applications and emphasized that the focus of the submitted projects was on resource-saving and affordable construction. Other award-winning projects include:
- Siedlungshaus am Westensee in Felde von Felix Weber | BSP Architekten BDA
- Schleianleger Sieseby
- GEOMAR Helmholtz-Zentrum für Ozeanforschung Kiel
- Land- und Amtsgericht Lübeck
- Stadtbücherei und Stadtarchiv Lauenburg
- Erlebnis-Hus St. Peter-Ording
The winners were recognized in various categories, including public buildings, public services and infrastructure projects. The aim of the prize is to promote innovative and sustainable solutions in the construction sector. The use of modern and traditional materials such as wood and clay, as well as the application of fee standards in construction, paves the way to greater climate justice, as Frederik Hogrefe emphasized during a specialist symposium.
The future of construction
The State Prize for Building Culture is intended not only to honor projects that have already been implemented, but also to stimulate future projects. Projects submitted by April 1, 2025 have the chance to take part in the next awards ceremony. All draft authors and builders are invited to submit their projects in the categories of housing, education, conversion and existing buildings as well as civil engineering and infrastructure.
Overall, the State Prize for Building Culture is an important sign of the appreciation of sustainable building in Schleswig-Holstein. A variety of innovative approaches and the large number of good submissions show that building culture is highly valued in the region and is well on its way to mastering the challenges of the 21st century.
