Haus Windeck
Haus Windeck stands in Grohn, within Bremen’s Vegesack district, on the high banks of the Lesum River. The 1847 villa combines one- and two-storey sections with a Tudor-style turret from the Romantic era.
Johannes Tideman, a Bremen merchant and shipowner, commissioned the building, while its architect remains unknown. Friedrich Bischoff acquired it in 1910, and Bremen heritage protection has covered the property since 2000. Today, the villa houses a city-run children’s and family centre beside a 6,000-square-metre garden.
Seven preschool groups once gathered here with 132 children, alongside nursery groups at neighbouring Grohner Utkiek. Singing, music, movement and multilingual books support language development, while inclusive education connects with early-intervention services. Fresh, mostly organic meals come from the on-site kitchen, and the grounds include outdoor play areas and a sports hall.
