Communal Living
In Taunusstein and Wiesbaden, more and more “open houses” are being created as residential and living communities.
⌂ Hub and Barn, Mainzer Allee in Taunusstein-Wehen
This is the central hub of our work in Taunusstein, where we regularly host discipleship trainings and agricultural workshops. The core team of Global Nomads Germany lives here, together with visitors who stay for a few days or weeks in the barn, share daily life with us, and contribute their gifts. Come and see!

⌂ Open House in Taunusstein Neuhof
Annette shares: “Our women’s house community began in March 2022. At the moment, there are three of us living here—myself, a long-time friend, and Yulia, a Ukrainian woman who started a new chapter of life together with us.
On Sunday afternoons, we often host a women’s gathering here. We are also planning to expand the building to create more space for people in the future.
Our house is known as a place where people can simply be—where it’s okay to drop by spontaneously. We often welcome guests who stay with us for a few days or even a few weeks and share daily life with us.“
⌂ Open house at Fabian and Tirza's in Wingsbach
Whether you need a listening ear, someone to pray with, a place to stay for a few nights, or simply don’t want to be alone—you are welcome in Fabian and Tirza’s home, together with their three lively kids.
On Friday nights at 7 pm, we gather for our “bring and share” meals. —We never quite know who will show up, but there’s always good food, good company, shared stories and room for one more.
⌂ Communal living of i58 employees in Taunusstein-Bleidenstadt
Elijah and Verna, the leaders of Peace House Taunusstein, live here with their family, alongside a shared apartment for mid-term team members.
⌂ Open house at Ibrahim and Helen's in Wiesbaden
International community gatherings take place here regularly and are easy to join.
Better Together
In a world that keeps pulling people apart, shared living spaces and open houses matter more than ever. Our hope is that the idea of open houses will take root in many other places as well. Let’s make time for one another and build genuine friendships with the people in our neighborhoods.
