history

On May 9, 1854, Wilhelm Löhe founded the deaconess institution in Neuendettelsau , a town west of Nuremberg in the Ansbach district . It belonged to the social works of the neo-Lutheran revival movement of the 19th century and was later called Diakonie Neuendettelsau .

In the 1860s, structures such as old-age and health care for the deaconesses were added, and uniform costumes were introduced. In the 1970s, under Löhe's successor, Friedrich Meyer , the spiritual side of the community was emphasized more strongly. Several branches of the parent company were also established during this time. The plant expanded, in addition to the hospitals and old people's homes, a school for teacher training, a secondary school for girls and a social school for women were added at the beginning of the 20th century. At the beginning of the 1930s Neuendettelsau had 1,300 deaconesses.

From the year 2000 in particular, Diakonie Neuendettelsau expanded its range through various takeovers. So the facilities of the 2000, Diakonie Association Roth 2007 adopted Rangauklinik Ansbach ,, or later the Nuremberg Diakonie stations Diakonie NordWest and Diakonie Nuremberg-East . On January 1, 2018, Diakonie Neuendettelsau took over 75 percent of the shares in Klinik Schwabach .

On February 1, 1886, the "Diakonissenhaus" was founded in Schwäbisch Hall by Pastor Hermann Faulhaber. From 1899 this was called "Diakonissenanstalt", later called Evangelisches Diakoniewerk Schwächisch Hall . The Diakoniewerk in Schwäbisch Hall then lost its independence in 2019, after 133 years.

In 2019, the Diakonie Neuendettelsau joined the Evangelical Diakoniewerk Schwäbisch Hall eV as a legal entity. Previously, all previous members had resigned from the club, which is usually called Diak . The association was then converted into a non-profit GmbH, whose sole partner was the Diakonie Neuendettelsau. This changed its name to Diakoneo on July 1, 2019 .
