Schröderstift, Hamburg, Heritage monument in Rotherbaum, Germany

The Schröderstift consists of three wings designed by architect Albert Rosengarten, featuring 52 small apartments with two rooms and a kitchen each.

Built between 1851 and 1852, the complex was established by Hamburg merchant Johann Heinrich Schröder to provide housing for single women in financial need.

The central chapel now serves as an altar room for both Coptic Orthodox and Ethiopian Orthodox congregations, reflecting religious diversity in Hamburg.

The residential complex operates under tenant self-management since 1981, with residents collectively maintaining and managing the property through a registered association.

The marble chapel stands as the symmetrical center point of the complex, featuring a copper dome that marks the architectural focal point.
