Euro area construction production rose 0.9% MoM and fell 0.9% YoY in Dec 2025, while EU output rose 1.2% MoM and was flat YoY, signaling a month-end rebound after November's drop.

• November output fell 1.5% MoM in both the euro area and EU, so December's gain partly reversed the prior month's slide.
• Euro area sector detail: buildings +0.9% MoM, civil engineering +2.3% MoM, specialized activities +0.6% MoM, showing broad-based monthly gains.
• EU sector detail: buildings +1.2% MoM, civil engineering +3.9% MoM, specialized activities +0.9% MoM, with civil engineering the strongest driver.
• Biggest monthly increases were Hungary +6.6%, Poland +5.1%, and Slovakia +4.0%, while Austria -9.2%, Slovenia -3.2%, and Bulgaria -2.3% led declines, underscoring uneven national momentum.
• YoY, euro area buildings were -3.3% while civil engineering +1.6% and specialized activities +0.2%; in the EU, buildings -0.7% with civil engineering +0.9% and specialized activities +1.1%, pointing to lingering weakness in building construction.
