In 1834 Vicar Gustav Werner began his diaconal work in Walddorf near Reutlingen. He soon founded an industrial school and a kindergarten and bought a factory in Reutlingen, the profit of which he wanted to finance his social projects. In 1855 he called his diaconal institution Bruderhaus and wanted to support his neighbors, but above all people with disadvantages, and offer them an education and a home. In order to ensure the continued existence of his social work, he founded the Gustav Werner Foundation for the Brother House in 1881 . The foundation then grew into a large aid network in Baden and Württemberg.
