On October 9, the 47th welfare stamp series will be released in favor of the Free Welfare. The recipient of the proceeds from the sale of these special stamps is the Federal Working Group of the Free Welfare Care Association, in which the Arbeiterwohlfahrt, the Diakonische Werk of the EKD, the German Caritas Association, the German Paritätische Wohlfahrtsverband, the German Red Cross and the Central Welfare Office of the Jews in Germany have united , These organizations help wherever government aid is not enough. The charity stamp series of regional farmhouses from Germany, which started in 1995, will be continued this year with five more editions. For the farmhouses of Schleswig-Holstein the Haubarg Hamkens was selected from Tating. It was built in the early 18th century and represents a typical for the peninsula Eiderstedt special form of the so-called Gulf House, in which the grain is stored not in the loft, but within the house. Stables, living quarters and entrance hall are arranged around this barn-like center of the house. This striking house form, which unfortunately has become rare today, is mainly due to its powerful, deeply drawn-down roof construction. (Text: Dr. Renate Hilsenbeck, Nuremberg)
