59 Years of Bugenhagen-Konvikt

A journey through the changing history of the Konvikt

Since the winter semester of 1958/59 we provide students from in and abroad affordable living space. There were always challenges: Radical changes in society and science (the„68er“), shortage of flats and rising energy costs.

Just because of the work of helping supporters who have good connections to the department of Protestant Theology and the Protestant Lutheran Church in North Germany and the dedicated work of the management board and board of trustees we could stay on target. And last but not least the reliable work oft he team on-spot.
