In the heart of Germany, the city of Wiesbaden is bustling with activity as several major construction projects are underway. Here's a rundown of what you need to know.
The Press Office of the State Capital Wiesbaden, located at Schlossplatz 6, 65183 Wiesbaden, is the official source of information regarding these projects. You can find updates on their website, pressereferat.
One of the most notable projects is the refurbishment of the former Palast Hotel at Kochbrunnenplatz. The city is considering selling or renovating the building, with a decision expected in fall 2025. The building requires complete renovation to enable permanent residential use, and efforts are being made to maintain occupancy and building condition during the decision process.
Another significant project is the modernization at Mainz-Kastel Station, part of the U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden area. As of August 2025, these projects involve site security and infrastructure upgrades.
The city is also home to multiple ongoing construction and improvement projects within U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden facilities, including housing construction sites at Villaggio and Ederle. These projects have been reviewed by IMCOM leadership in mid-2025.
If you're wondering about the impact on bus routes, ESWE Verkehr provides information on bus detours during construction works at eswe-verkehr.de. Pedestrians can use their usual routes during the construction works.
The city has construction sites on approximately 5,000 streets, lines, and canals each year. While these works may cause traffic disruptions, they are necessary to prevent major damage and stronger traffic disruptions in the future. The city requests understanding for these inconveniences.
For maps of selected construction and urban development measures in Wiesbaden, you can find resources on the city’s official website on urban development projects.

In summary, the main ongoing construction projects in Wiesbaden include the refurbishment of the Palast Hotel site, modernization at Mainz-Kastel Station, and military-related infrastructure projects.
