    Hiking

    the "Rauhe Haus" is not rough at all, but rather charitable. Today a foundation on whose premises schools, social facilities and senior citizens' homes are united. A quiet lake with tall, old trees centers the beautiful complex. A short detour there is always worthwhile.

    Hiking

    The Rauhe Haus was founded in 1833 by Johann Hinrich Wichern.

    This makes the foundation one of the oldest diaconal institutions in Germany. Today, 1,200 employees work at over 100 locations in Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein. Together, they provide a variety of care services for more than 3,000 people.

    The then 25-year-old Johann Hinrich Wichern wanted to establish a rescue village for neglected and orphaned children from the slums. He convinced leading Hamburg politicians and merchants of his plan and was given a cottage, "Ruge's House," along with the land, by the Hamburg syndic Karl Sievekind.
