Haus auf der Alb, Architectural heritage monument and conference center in Bad Urach, Germany.

The Haus auf der Alb stands at the northern edge of the Swabian Jura, featuring bright rooms and large windows that connect indoor spaces with nature.

Built between 1929 and 1930 as a recovery home for merchants, the building was designed by architect Adolf Gustav Schneck following classical modernism principles.

The conference center names its rooms after individuals who made substantial contributions to democracy and human rights, reinforcing its educational mission.

The facility hosts over 200 events annually, offering seminar spaces, accommodation, and garden areas for political education programs and public discussions.

The building survived multiple transformations, from a merchant recovery home to a military hospital, before becoming a center for political education in 1992.
