We prove that if a sequence of geodesically complete CAT(0)-spaces $$X_j$$
X
j
with uniformly cocompact discrete groups of isometries converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to $$X_\infty $$
X
∞
, then the dimension of the maximal Euclidean factor splitted off by $$X_\infty $$
X
∞
and $$X_j$$
X
j
is the same, for j big enough. In other words, no additional Euclidean factors can appear in the limit.
