Aegidienhof

The Aegidienhof complex consists of 12 brick buildings arranged around a central courtyard between St. Annen Street and Weberstrasse in Lübeck.

Initially established as a Beguinage in 1301, the complex included a house chapel marked by large window openings and a bricked-up pointed arch portal.

The residential community brings together people of different ages, incomes, and abilities in 52 housing units alongside 10 studios, offices, and workshops.

The facility operates with a central combined heat and power unit and includes a rainwater collection system to reduce drinking water consumption.

The complex represents 700 years of urban development, transforming from a medieval religious institution to a modern collaborative living space.
