BAUMESSE Idar-Oberstein

The BAUMESSE Idar-Oberstein is an annual trade and public fair dedicated to energy-efficient construction, sustainable renovation, and age-appropriate living. The name BAUMESSE stands not only for traditional building but also for consulting, showcasing, and practical implementation. Its aim is to present concrete, forward-thinking solutions for tomorrow’s housing and construction needs—offering much more than a simple product display.

The event takes place at Messe Idar-Oberstein, located in the city of the same name in the heart of Rhineland-Palatinate. It brings together private builders, renovators, skilled tradespeople, architects, and interested visitors seeking in-depth information, professional networking, and direct dialogue with experts.

At the core of the fair are the topics of renovation, modernization, and energy-efficient refurbishment. In addition to technical innovations, the event addresses broader social issues such as climate neutrality, climate resilience, and barrier-free, age-friendly living. Visitors can experience how modern heating and insulation systems, photovoltaic solutions with energy storage, smart building technologies, and innovative window and roofing systems work together to enhance both comfort and sustainability. Experts from the construction trades, energy consulting, building materials industry, and specialized firms are on hand for personal consultations.
