Gladbeck receives 4.2 million euros for new social housing!

17 new social housing units are planned on Theodorstrasse. The apartments are offered in different sizes - from compact two-room apartments to spacious four-room units. However, interested tenants can only move in if they can show a certificate of occupancy. This ensures that the housing really benefits those who urgently need it.

Structure and support
