Renovation
Willi Sutter and his company “Domiziel” took on the restoration of the house. The Agency for Preservation of Historical Monuments promised financial support; the district and the city of Breisach and many donors participated. It took a long time to complete.
The lecture room was festively inaugurated in April.
The first summer camp with “Aktion Sühnezeichen Friedensdienste” (Action Reconciliation Service for Peace) brought 17 young adults from six European countries to Breisach. They volunteered for two weeks to help with the renovation. They cleared the garden of trees and bushes.
On their last day in Breisach, the young volunteers discovered that the floor of the historic cellar was covered with a layer of debris 40 cm thick. Participants in the following summer camps of Aktion Sühnezeichen Friedensdienste painstakingly removed this layer.
