25 years of German Unification

Germany is celebrating 25 years since unification on 3 October 1990, 11 months after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

In the past 25 years, the Bank has invested some EUR 31 billion in the six federal states concerned – Berlin, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia.

The EIB has backed a number of the projects which have helped to realise the rebirth of Berlin and the development of industry around Dresden and Jena. Below are just a few examples of EIB projects which have been instrumental in bringing economic growth and job opportunities to the former East Germany.

Urban Renewal Potsdamer Platz

25 years of German Unification

The renewal of the famous Potsdamer Platz is perhaps the most visible urban development and real estate investment in Berlin financed by the Bank, right on the border between east and west.

Universitätsklinikum Jena-Lobeda

25 years of German Unification

This university clinic is a more recent example of health infrastructure investment. The whole university campus will be rebuilt and modernised with the support of EIB finance.

Braunkohlesanierung Lausitz

25 years of German Unification

The Bank helped finance the removal of heavy environmental damage left by the GDR brown coal mining industry. Many of the pits around Leipzig have now been turned into lakes and nature reserves.
