The model village Ramersdorf in Munich's Ramersdorf should Shortly after the takeover of the Nazi regime within the framework of the "German settlement exhibition" 1934, presented as an exemplary embodiment of Nazi settlement thought. Within a very short time, 192 single-family houses with 34 different building types were built under the direction of the housing consultant and architect Guido Harbers . The ensemble is self-contained and, in line with the garden city idea, has numerous green spaces .

The architects responsible for the buildings included Friedrich Ferdinand Haindl , Sep Ruf , Franz Ruf , Lois Knidberger , Albert Heichlinger , Max Dellefant , Theo Pabst , Christoph Miller , Hanna Loev and Karl Delisle . The hoped-for propagandistic effect of the settlement did not materialize, however, as, among other things, the living space of 56 to 129 m 2, which was generous for the time, as well as individual modernist building elements were criticized.

After the end of the settlement exhibition, the houses were sold as private homes. In 1935, a new Protestant church was opened with the Gustav Adolf Church in the settlement.
