The House of the Future was built on the site of the local Evangelical Lutheran parish . In November 2006 the Federal Ministry for Family, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth included it in the “Multi-Generation Houses Action Program” and will continue to be funded by the Federal Ministry as a multi-generation house. The surrounding district was included in the funding plan for urban development by the Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development.
The Bremen multigenerational house was opened on April 3, 2007 by Federal Minister Ursula von der Leyen . It is a joint project in which the Haus der Zukunft e. V. (this includes the neighborhood management for the WiN, Socially Integrative City and Local Strengths programs , the House of the Family , the parents' association for psychomotor development support EPSYMO and the early parent advisory service SWIMMY) cooperate with the opposite day care center and the community center.
The former President of the Senate and Mayor of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen Jens Böhrnsen is the godfather of the House of the Future. The building designed by the architects Helmut Rabien and Ulrich Helpertz from the Bremen-Nord building authority was awarded the 1998 BDA Bremen Prize. In 2008, the head of the facility was awarded the Federal Cross of Merit for her work in the House of the Future.
