Local Governments - Six bids received for the ex-JVA in Göttingen.

The old prison in Göttingen has garnered interest from six potential buyers, as the city recently announced. If you're interested in purchasing this historical building located in the northern part of Göttingen's city center, you'll need to submit your application by Tuesday.

However, it's unclear whether any of these offers will be accepted or when a decision will be made. The proposals vary in their level of detail and outline different visions for the future use of the property. Each one entails an investment of at least a million euros. The majority of these applications hail from the surrounding region.

Back in late January, the city's administrative committee decided to put the 1836 Justice Penitentiary up for sale. The bidding process ran from February 1st to June 1st, with the minimum bid set at 140,000 euros. As part of their submissions, potential buyers had to provide a usage plan and a financial plan outlining how they'd fund the project.
