Landesamt für Umwelt

The Landesamt für Umwelt is the state environmental agency for Brandenburg responsible for monitoring and protecting natural resources across the region. It operates monitoring systems for water and air quality, manages nature conservation efforts, and oversees technical environmental programs throughout the state.

The office was established as a subordinate authority under the Ministry of Environment and later reorganized under the Ministry of Agriculture, Environment and Climate Protection. This shift reflected growing integration between environmental management and related policy areas.

With six departments and 38 specialized units, the office shapes environmental policies through scientific research and regulatory oversight in Brandenburg.

The agency provides access to environmental data, water quality information, and air monitoring readings through digital platforms and regional information centers. You can visit in person at various locations or access information online.

The organization employs more than 900 staff members who focus on monitoring wolf populations, managing flood protection systems, and implementing noise control measures across the state. This specialized work gives insight into the range of environmental challenges the agency addresses daily.
