    Descrição

    ... if this field of activity sounds like the perfekt match for you, we are looking forward to welcome you for three weeks or longer to help us with diverse cultural events and restoring the old castle.

    Matthias is a lecturer in cultural history, organizes study trips and is author of several historical books. He was for many years the Chairman of a Society for Historic Houses and Gardens.
    Dagny is a manager for cultural events and study trips.

    We have had around 260 volunteers from exactly 36 nations in the past 7 years. For us an incredible experience and enrichment.

    Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

    Involved in this Workaway exchange, you can learn a lot about culture and history of Germany.
    Not only is the castle old, our family can also look back on hundreds of years of history.
    We can help you with trip advices and travel plans to the nearby region. Here is the historical heart of Germany. This is where the first German king got his crown, worked the church reformer Martin Luther 500 years ago and where the BAUHAUS, the world's most important school for design and architecture of the 20th century, was founded a hundred years ago. Here in the small state of Saxony-Anhalt we have 5 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, this density is unique in the world.

  • Ajuda

    Ajuda

    First of all:
    We need help with our restoration projects. If you have never held a hammer in your hand or drilled a hole, this is not the right one for you at the moment.
    We need help also with daily household chores.

    Restoration:
    We're doing a lot of bricklaying at the moment. Then we will work on the historical roof structure. There is also the interior work of the historical library.

    Help in the house/garden:
    We also have the option that you can help us mainly with tasks like preparing the meals, different things in the house and also watering/gardening the park and the vegetable garden.

    Events:
    For our non-profit events during the year we ask you to help us, like theater plays, historical cooking classes, tastings with Live-Music, different speeches and guided tours. We have different smaler events where you can participate if you are interested in. There you can learn about german history and culture. (But this part is currently small.)

  • Acomodação

    Acomodação

    Burgliebenau is a village in the middle of Germany in Saxony-Anhalt (the Country, where Martin Luther lived and worked 500 years ago). A large nearby City is Leipzig. The international airport Leipzig and good long-distance train connections make it easy for you to reach Burgliebenau.
    We are living closely together with our guests from all over the world. We cook together and share meals together in the family kitchen. A vegan diet would not work in our family but vegetarian would be possible.
    Every guest has his own furnished bedroom.
    If you like to experience a very close family live and are willing to adapt to our way of living during your stay, you are welcome to our home.
