Weimer furniture store closes: New sports center for Leonberg in sight!
A significant change is coming in Leonberg, Baden-Württemberg: The Weimer furniture store, located on Hindenburgstrasse, will close at the end of the year. The owner family sold the property to the non-profit organization Seehaus e.V. This decision was announced on June 5, 2025.
Seehaus e.V. is an active player in social work that specializes in victim support, offender support and prevention projects. The planned use of the purchased rooms includes the establishment of a sports and prevention center on an area of around 600 m². This reflects the association's commitment to tackling social problems and making a contribution to promoting health and prevention.
About the sales process
The transaction was brokered by Kreissparkasse Böblingen, a partner known in the region for its support of social projects. This shows the interest in a sensible subsequent use of the property, which goes beyond the classic business model of a furniture store.
The closure of the Weimer furniture store and its subsequent use by Seehaus e.V. are part of a larger trend in which vacant residential and commercial spaces are being reallocated for social projects and offerings. This development is not only positive for the district, but also for the entire region, as it sets an example for socially responsible action.
By opening this new center, Leonberg will not only become a place for trade, but also for sports and health promotion. The urban structures will be sustainably revitalized and the initiative could serve as a model for similar projects in other cities.
In summary, it can be said that the decision to sell the Weimer furniture store property to Seehaus e.V. represents a well-considered and socially committed action that benefits both the community and the future users of the sports and prevention center. The example shows how real estate developments can meaningfully contribute to improving community life.
