Renovations, heritage and volumes

For your renovation projects in Saxon, the RegBL figures provide essential benchmarks. With two buildings officially under heritage protection, it is crucial to contact the municipality early to understand potential planning restrictions. The median house volume is 840 m3, which serves as a key indicator for scaling your heating or insulation work. Please note that data coverage remains partial: volume is explicitly measured for only 6 buildings, and information regarding the last renovation year is currently unavailable in the register for the 1798 buildings listed, limiting historical insight into the existing housing stock.
