Timber Construction in Hildesheim – Between Cathedral City and Efficiency House
Storey additions, urban densification and energy-efficient new builds: MAIER & PARTNER INNOVATIVBAU brings modern timber construction to the UNESCO city of Hildesheim.
Modern timber construction in the UNESCO cathedral city
With its cathedral and St Michael's Church, Hildesheim is a UNESCO World Heritage city with deeply rooted building fabric and a townscape shaped by post-war reconstruction. This mix of historic core and dense residential areas makes timber construction especially attractive: it suits both careful densification and Efficiency House new builds in the suburbs. In Moritzberg, Itzum, Ochtersum, Drispenstedt, Himmelsthür, Sorsum or towards Marienburg, we plan storey additions, shell houses and replacement builds. Timber-frame and timber-panel construction enable slim structures with high insulation values – ideal for limited plots in the Rose City.
Why timber construction in Hildesheim
In established urban locations every square metre counts – with slim wall build-ups, timber construction delivers more usable floor area at the same insulation level. Its low weight often makes storey additions on existing buildings possible in the first place. Workshop prefabrication shortens the build time and minimises noise and site traffic in densely built quarters.

What does timber construction cost in Hildesheim?
Flat per-square-metre prices would be misleading – costs depend on the plot, layout, finishing standard and fittings. That is why we calculate individually and quote the price on request after an on-site appointment. You receive a clearly structured offer. We take possible subsidies into account from the outset.
Using funding in Hildesheim
The BEG programmes from KfW and BAFA apply to new builds and renovation. Those who reach the Efficiency House standard and additionally aim for the sustainability class with QNG certification may receive improved conditions – timber construction scores here thanks to its CO2 balance. For storey additions and renovation of existing stock, further modules may apply. The specific amounts depend on the project and must be confirmed at the relevant time; we review them together with you.

Frequently asked questions about timber construction in Hildesheim
Does MP-Innovativbau travel from Langenhagen all the way to Hildesheim?
Yes. Hildesheim is about 42 km from Langenhagen. Thanks to workshop prefabrication the distance is not a problem – we deliver and assemble on site and are active throughout the Hildesheim district.
Is timber construction suitable for densification in Hildesheim?
Excellently so. Slim wall build-ups and low weight make timber construction ideal for infill development and storey additions in established districts such as Moritzberg or Ochtersum.
Can I build an Efficiency House in timber in the suburbs?
Yes. In districts such as Itzum, Sorsum or Himmelsthür we realise Efficiency House new builds with high insulation standards that can meet the requirements for BEG funding.
Is timber construction compatible with the heritage-influenced surroundings?
In principle, yes. We plan new builds and additions so they blend into the townscape. In locations near listed buildings we coordinate details with the authorities early on.
