Our history
Earl Friedrich Ernst of Solms-Laubach took over the
shire after the death of his father in 1696.
His mother Benigna, 48 years old at the time, bought
a small estate from her inheritance, the Flensunger Hof,
where she liked to stay.
The hotel and inn Flensunger Hof was purchased by
the Chrischona-Werk in 1921 for their work in the state
of Hesse as a place for preparation and refreshment.
In the eventful following years during WWII it was seized and used as a children’s home and a hospital.
After the end of the war the CGW used the house as a bible- and recreation home.

Schon 1975 wird auf den Ländereien in direkter Nachbarschaft zum Flensunger Hof das EC-Freizeitdorf als Bildungs- und Erholungsstätte des EC-Landesverbandes Oberhessen-Saar (EC = „Entschieden für Christus“) in Betrieb genommen.1980 kann als zweiter Bauabschnitt das Haupthaus (Mehrzweckhaus) mit Gruppenräumen, Speisesaal, Küche, Schwimmbad, Sauna und den Wohnbereichen für den Heimleiter und die Zivildienstleistenden eingeweiht werden.

Construction of the bungalows / redesign of the only roof houses
The Nurdachhäuser are redesigned as a chapel, as a workshop and craft house, as a table tennis house and one becomes a playground house. A Nurdachhaus remains as a "museum house" for nostalgics and is still in operation: "As it used to be!"
In 2003 and 2005 the previous "Nurdachhäuser" (which had been vigorously revitalized in the 30 years and had in the meantime become in need of renovation) were replaced by 6 new bungalows each with 12 people.
Renewal of the roof of the half-timbered house
In autumn 2010, the entire roof structure of the half-timbered house, which is under monument protection, was heavily renovated due to storm and age damage.
