Further Description
The commercial property, totaling approx. 142,326 m², comprises a spacious, historically developed industrial and logistics ensemble with extensive storage and production areas, including silo facilities, workshops, residential and office buildings, as well as generous outdoor and traffic areas. Parts of the property are currently in secondary use or leased to third parties.
Areas:
- Total area: approx. 142,326 m²
- Sealed / built-up: approx. 84,500 m²
- Brownfield / unused land: approx. 57,826 m²
- Topography: predominantly flat, slightly sloping toward the northeast
- Silo storage capacity: 120 kt (120,000 t)
Development / Use
The development was largely constructed between 1969 and 1979 as a compound feed plant with attached storage and silo facilities, as well as a fully equipped administrative and social building (partially residential today).
Purchase price (asking):
EUR 3,500,000 (EUR 3.5 million)
Total rental income:
Approx. EUR 150,000 p.a. (net, plus VAT)
The purchase price represents a rare opportunity, as it is significantly below the land value of comparable commercial sites of this size. The property therefore offers an exceptionally attractive entry scenario for investors, developers, or owner-occupiers with their own site concept.
Current Use
The large silos are currently still in operation (storage of approx. 20,000 t). A corresponding permit under the Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchG) remains valid. Feed production was discontinued around 2010. Non-required areas were dismantled or leased. Sustainable use as grain storage, transshipment hub, and general storage and parking space is possible within the existing buildings.
Historical Use
For decades, the site was used for trading grain, corn, oilseeds, and legumes, as well as drying, processing, and storage – a typical former GDR large-scale silo complex with rail connection.
Planning Law
- No development plan
- Designated as commercial area in the land-use plan
- This allows for diverse reactivation and development possibilities in a commercial environment (production, logistics, agriculture, energy, processing, industry, etc.).
A current extract (as of 06/2025) from the soil contamination register is available. According to this report, the property is not listed as a suspected contaminated site.
Various building encumbrances and easements exist; these are not value-relevant.
Infrastructure
- Fully developed in terms of transport and utilities
- High-capacity traffic areas
- Decommissioned rail connections on the site (reactivatable if required)
- Power connection capacity: 2,400 kVA (approx. 2.4 MW)

Lage:
Location
Am Bahnhof 13, D-07570 Harth-Pöllnitz (Niederpöllnitz), Thuringia, Germany
Macro Location – Thuringia & European Location Advantages:
The property is located in the federal state of Thuringia, a geographically central region in central Germany.
Central Transport Corridor of Germany
Thuringia is intersected by two of Germany’s most important motorways:
Federal Motorway A9 (north–south axis Berlin–Munich)
Federal Motorway A4 (east–west axis)
These key transport routes intersect in close proximity, providing excellent national connectivity.
Strategic Proximity to Central and Eastern Europe
Due to the east–west and north–south transport axes, the site is ideally suited for logistics, transport, and distribution processes extending beyond national borders into Central and Eastern Europe. This makes the location a strategically advantageous base for cross-border goods flows and trade.
Supply and Economic Hub in the Heart of Germany
With its central position, Thuringia offers a solid foundation for industrial, agricultural, and logistics projects. The region is particularly well suited for large-scale commercial sites with flexible usage options.
As a result, the property combines the location advantages of Thuringia with excellent European accessibility and a strong logistical starting position.
Distances (Approx. Driving Times) to Key Economic Centers
Gera: approx. 20 minutes
Leipzig: approx. 1 hour
Dresden: approx. 2 hours
Prague: approx. 3.5 hours
Berlin: approx. 3 hours
Munich: approx. 3.5 hours
Stuttgart: approx. 4 hours
Essen / Ruhr Area: approx. 5 hours

Micro Location & Transport Connectivity – Harth-Pöllnitz / Niederpöllnitz:
Connectivity to the transport network can be described as very good. The proximity to the A9 and A4 motorways ensures fast accessibility for both national and international transit traffic.
A potential rail connection or former rail infrastructure is available on the property (former railway and shunting tracks), providing an excellent basis for future rail-based freight and logistics use.
Rail Station & Public Transport
The property is located in immediate proximity to the railway station, facilitating both passenger transport and logistics operations and making it ideal for combined commercial and mobility-related uses.
In addition, bus stops and public transport connections are located directly at or near the property—an advantage for employees, commuters, and supporting logistics.
Due to its location in eastern Thuringia, the nearby city of Gera is easily accessible. The connection to the university city of Gera (with degree programs in engineering and business) provides access to skilled labor, know-how, infrastructure, services, and an urban environment, while retaining a rural-industrial character.
Flood Risk
According to ZÜRS (German zoning system for flood, backwater, and heavy rainfall risk), the property is located in an area not at risk of flooding
(Zone 1).
