history

As early as the early 1970s, the Institute for Empirical Economic Research in Saarbrücken carried out a study on the construction of a shopping center in Sankt Augustin (P. Rothhaar 1971: The community of Sankt Augustin as a location for a shopping center). The shopping center was built in the 1970s together with the town hall as the center of the newly created town of Sankt Augustin. Operation began in 1977. The first building was put into operation in 1977 as the Hurler Magazin , popularly known as the HUMA market . There were around 50 shops in the old building: The anchor tenants were Real , Saturn and Intersport Voswinkel . In 2013 the ground-breaking ceremony took place for a new building, which was realized in two construction phases. A new building was built by 2015, into which most of the previous tenants and some new shops moved. The old building was then torn down and the second construction phase was built in its place. Since the completion of the first construction phase in 2015, the article has been changed from the to the and huma has been written in lower case since then, as the shopping center has since been referred to as the huma shopping world . On September 28, 2017, the second construction phase of huma was completed. The West car park was completed in 2015 together with the first new building section, the East car park in 2017 together with the second new building section. In 2018, a park was built on the former parking lot on Südstraße.

Old building

The shopping center had two floors from the raised market plate and one below, which was at ground level to the area behind it. It had a total area of ​​61,000 m² and a rental area of ​​42,000 m². A footbridge led over the railroad tracks. There were around 50 shops in the old building; the anchor tenants were Real , Saturn and Intersport Voswinkel .

New building

The new construction of the entire shopping center, which leads to an expansion of the sales area to 39,000 square meters with 140 shops, was completed on September 28, 2017. The building permit for the new construction of the shopping center when the previous building was demolished was handed over to the investors of the Jost Hurler Group in September 2013. A lawsuit by the city of Siegburg against the planned expansion of the retail space had no further suspensive effect. The new building took place successively and was built according to plans by the architectural office Chapman Taylor .

Shops

The huma has the following 81 stores: (As of June 17, 2019)

Since November 2018 there has also been a living space church , which is operated by an ecumenical association and is intended to offer visitors to the shopping center a place of rest.
