Piusheim, Heritage educational complex in Baiern, Germany

Piusheim is a three-storey, two-winged former educational institution with crippled hip roofs, numerous dormers and an integrated house chapel, built in Reformstil (baroque-influenced Jugendstil) in 1912/13 to designs by architect Hans Steiner and government master builder Hans Hintermayer. It stands five kilometres south-east of Glonn in the municipality of Baiern, and a landscape park with a cast-iron corpus on a wooden cross belongs to the ensemble.

The Munich association founded in 1852 to educate neglected youth bought Obermühle estate in 1905 and added neighbouring properties, including two mills, by 1910. Its main building was erected in 1912/13 by architect Hans Steiner and government master builder Hans Hintermayer with support from Prince Regent Luitpold, and named Piusheim after Pope Pius X. A youth village followed between 1967 and 1971; the home closed in 2006.

The name Piusheim honours Pope Pius X. The home housed children and youths aged six to eighteen, and its 1965 revolt by 200 residents and the 1969 escape of 20 inmates are part of its story. Since 2007 the Freie Schule Glonntal has used the former institution.

Piusheim lies five kilometres south-east of Glonn in the municipality of Baiern, Ebersberg district.
