history

In view of the housing shortage, the idea of ​​setting up small settlements came up as early as the Weimar Republic . This idea was closely linked to the garden city movement in Germany and was initially developed further by architects such as Hermann Muthesius and later by personalities such as Bruno Taut into a generally applicable variant of social housing . Small settlements were also a job creation measure . For the National Socialists , owning a home became a key political goal. The small settlement for the worker, consisting of homesteads or small settlements, was particularly promoted. In the German Reich 1933-1945 100,000 small settlements were established. Located on the outskirts of cities, many survived the aerial warfare . In Berlin alone , three are preserved in Spandau , Zehlendorf and Reinickendorf . A revealing example - also for the "beautification" - is Surheide (Bremerhaven) .

After the Second World War , the construction of small settlements in West Germany was specifically promoted as part of housing programs in order to facilitate the creation of living space with the creation of (residential) property and - especially until the end of the 1950s - with the aim of self-sufficiency for the population in To connect times of crisis. These small settlements were usually created within the framework of organized group self-help . In Schleswig-Holstein - for example - over 35,000 (subsidized, over 75,000 freely financed) small settlements were operated up to the 1990s according to the type drafts (combined with type approvals ) of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Zeitgenösses Bauen eV (but also in all other federal states on different sizes ) has been realized. The small settlements, equipped with smaller plots from the 1970s, because the self-sufficiency concept no longer played a role with the increasing time lag to the war.

In the building use ordinance (BauNVO) in so-called small settlement areas regulated and urban planning.

The older small settlements are nowadays no longer entirely up-to-date in terms of space-saving construction - many of the small settlements, some of which have very large plots, are being structurally densified today . Small settlements are often organized in settler communities under the umbrella of the German Settlers Union and maintain a more or less pronounced social community. Small settlements are early forms of social or group housing projects .
