Piusheim, Heritage educational complex in Baiern, Germany

The three-story educational facility features a baroque revival architecture with two wings, hipped roofs, and a house chapel integrated into the structure.

Built between 1912 and 1913 under Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria, the institution originally served as a home for orphaned youth from disadvantaged backgrounds.

The complex includes a church ship in the main building that accommodates 200 people, renovated between 2011 and 2013 with artistic designs by Viktor Adraktas.

The facility operates as a power supplier and grid operator, implementing renewable energy sources including water, solar, and wood to achieve carbon neutrality.

The former orphanage transformed into a sustainable village concept, maintaining biological farming practices with year-round grazing for cattle for over 30 years.
