Stadt Staufen

What Stadt Staufen does

Stadt Staufen is a municipal government entity (Körperschaft des öffentlichen Rechts) located in Staufen im Breisgau, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, serving approximately 8,500 residents within the Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald district. The city delivers standard municipal administrative services including residency registration, building permits, waste management coordination, public infrastructure maintenance, and civic engagement through the town hall (Rathaus), the Bürgerbüro (citizen office with online appointment booking), and the city's website. Its revenue model derives from municipal taxes (Grundsteuer, Gewerbesteuer), administrative fees for permits and official documents, and state/federal allocations — not commercial transactions.

The municipality's core digital infrastructure is powered by Komm.ONE, Baden-Württemberg's municipal IT service provider, delivering a website with online forms, appointment booking via terminland.eu, and the BürgerGIS interactive city map. Beyond administration, the city operates a portfolio of cultural and recreational facilities including the FaustForum cultural center, the newly opened Staufener Mediathek (July 2026), the historic 1893 Alemannenbad swimming pool, the Keramikmuseum (operated by Badisches Landesmuseum), and multiple community halls. The city also runs a growing climate protection program with photovoltaic subsidies, energy consulting, Frelo bicycle sharing, and municipal heat planning.

Staufen maintains core partnerships with the Landkreis Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald for county-level services, Stadtwerke MüllheimStaufen for jointly operated municipal utilities, and twin cities Bonneville (France, 60 years in 2025) and Kazimierz Dolny (Poland, 30 years in 2025). The municipality is led by Mayor Dr. Benjamin Bröcker and operates under the standard German municipal governance framework, subject to L-BGG accessibility requirements and DSGVO data protection compliance. It is not a commercial enterprise and has no private ownership, funding rounds, or investor structure.
