Haus Wrede: A Historic Building with a New Purpose+

The current Haus Wrede was built in 1872 by Count Wilhelm Moerner. Today, it houses a meeting center for former drug addicts.

Architectural Features and History+

The building, originally a stately villa, showcases typical architectural elements of the late 19th century. Its facade is characterized by ornate stucco work and classical pilasters, reflecting the affluence of its original owner. Count Moerner, a prominent figure in local society, commissioned the villa as his private residence, and it remained in his family for several decades.

Transformation and Modern Use

After changing hands multiple times throughout the 20th century, Haus Wrede underwent a significant transformation in the early 2000s. A local non-profit organization acquired the property with the vision of converting it into a community hub. Extensive renovations were carried out, carefully preserving the historical integrity of the building while adapting its interior to meet modern needs.

Today, Haus Wrede serves as a vital resource for the community, offering support and a safe space for individuals on their path to recovery. Its rich history and renewed purpose make it a symbol of hope and resilience.
