Germany – Haus Aja Textor-Goethe

About the project

Since 1985 our biggest goal is to support the elderly people who live at Haus Aja Textor-Goethe with sustainable and warm relationships. Ideally they are enabled to spend their last phase of life as independently as possible and end their lives peacefully. Therefore we have apartments where residents get as much assistance as needed from our nursing service “Melissa”. Additionally we have four wards. Three of them are specialized on dementia including “Aja’s Gartenhaus”: its new architecture enables an even more intimate, family-like daily life. Furthermore “Haus Aja” provides events and classes for its residents, guests can mostly participate. Doing our best to let our impact on the climate change decrease has the same importance to us as our living community. For example we provide most of the electric power used at our house by our self and even share it with the Rudolf Steiner School next door. Our last addition combines our attempt to create a stimulating surrounding for our residents as well as to fulfill our responsibility for planet earth: Organic grocery store and bistro “Marille” is a place in a convenient distance for most of our residents, a meeting point for people of all ages and a shop for products out of a respectful biologic-dynamic agriculture we believe in.

About the homestay

Haus Aja Textor-Goethe is located in the north-western part of Frankfurt am Main. Using public transport travelers will be in the city center in twenty minutes. Frankfurt offers a great range of exhibitions, events and more. Nearby the homestay is our natural garden. It is cultivated according to ecological principals and considered to be the biggest privately operated organic garden in Frankfurt. Guests enjoy wandering around the garden and taking a nice seat in the sun or the shade after a long day in the city. Our organic grocery store and bistro “Marille” is also in the same building as the hotel rooms.
The travelers will rest in one of our five guests rooms. All of them got redecorated in 2018. Every room contains a bathroom with shower.
