“Donations instead of gifts” – a project close to our hearts

The Feldner Mühle has a viable concept for the future: the leisure facility has been turned into a residential group. The youngsters live in an extended family with animals on behalf of the district youth welfare office.

Feldner Mühle is breaking new ground: The leisure facility for young people with disabilities in Villingen, idyllically situated on the Brigach river, has been transformed into an “extraordinary, animalistic, inclusive” residential group for special children and young people.

Operator The Mäder family and their team offer boys and girls whose upbringing is no longer secure in their families of origin a new temporary home.

“In the meantime, our restructuring has taken effect. We now operate as a large care facility for mentally disabled and traumatized children. There are currently six children living at Feldner Mühle. All six children have been taken into care by the youth welfare office and placed with us. The children are between 4 and 12 years old. Our goal is still to obtain the operating license so that we can finally get the right daily rates for our guests,” says Mr. Mäder, head of the support association.
