Granting of the Heimatmedaille Baden-Württemberg 2025 to the Commission

The annual presentation of the Baden-Württemberg Homeland Medals marks the beginning of the State Festival Days, a cherished tradition within the Baden-Württemberg Homeland Days. This year, the city of Weinheim is hosting the Homeland Days.

State Secretary Arne Braun recently awarded the Baden-Württemberg Homeland Medal to ten citizens, each recognised for their outstanding commitment in making homeland tangible and strengthening unity in the country. Their contributions span various fields, including regional culture, historical research, traditions, dialect, art history, and social and integrative projects.

The recipients of the Homeland Medal create places of encounter, fostering acceptance and democratic participation. They strengthen village and city communities, keeping Baden-Württemberg traditions alive.

The Baden-Württemberg State Committee for Homeland Care advises the selection of personalities for the Homeland Medal. Proposals for the selection of personalities come from the working groups for homeland care in the four government districts, which collaborate with around 200 member associations and clubs in homeland and tradition care.

If you wish to propose a personality for the Homeland Medal or learn more about the honorees from previous years, you can find contact information for the Citizen Representative on the Ministry's website, or use the available contact form. Alternatively, you can reach out to the Press Office of the Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts via email.

Interestingly, there are no available search results specifying the names of the recipients of the Baden-Württemberg Heimatmedaille in 2025 at this time.

Arne Braun emphasised that having a homeland is a great fortune, and that it is not about boundaries or 'them and us', but about 'us'. He added that the YouTube channel of the Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts features portraits of honorees from previous years.

In conclusion, the Baden-Württemberg Homeland Medals serve as a testament to the spirit of community and tradition in Baden-Württemberg, honoring those who make significant contributions to keeping the region's heritage alive.
