Germersheim and Jockgrim: 108,000 euros for cemetery modernization!

A lot is happening in the Germersheim district! The towns of Germersheim and the local community of Jockgrim are pleased to receive a total donation of 108,000 euros from the Investment stock 2025. These funds are intended to support cemetery design in both communities. Germersheim receives 43,000 euros to set up a Muslim grave site, while Jockgrim receives 65,000 euros for the redesign of the cemetery area.

Interior Minister Michael Ebling emphasizes the importance of such support for the modernization of municipal infrastructure. The investments are not only a sign of appreciation for municipal concerns, but also a contribution to ensuring the quality of life locally. “We want to make the cities and communities fit for the future,” says Ebling, who focuses on sustainably strengthening the municipal infrastructure.

Focus on sustainable development

The 48 million euros that will be available in total in 2025 will be primarily used for projects that improve life in the communities. According to State regulations Investment projects are supported that contribute to improving economic strength and promoting inter-municipal cooperation. But private donations and contributions from citizens are also welcome to create a strong sense of community.

These funds will create the basis for subsequent private investments. Ultimately, the comfortable and attractive living space is a strong argument for companies to set up shop. This is where funding through the investment stock comes into play: It ensures that municipalities can act even in difficult times to prevent long-term structural deficits, according to experts.

Transparent procedures and accountability

It is important to know that the requested donations are not legally enforceable; the granting authorities decide at their discretion. The requirements are precisely defined. Among other things, the plans for investments must be well thought out and developed. The payment will only be made if the conditions of the LFAG are fulfilled.

For the citizens of Germersheim and Jockgrim, this not only means an investment in infrastructure, but also a strengthening of local community life. “It’s a win for everyone,” sums up a local politician, who is pleased about the positive effects on the community.

The successful application for these funds shows that civic engagement and municipal financial strength can go hand in hand. This paves the way for a modern and livable environment – ​​for the benefit of all residents in the region.
