Grass roof settlement

Construction of the "Laher Wiesen" grass roof housing estate began in October 1984. The first houses were occupied from April 1984. The estate consists of around 80 terraced houses and was built according to the plans of architects Boockhoff and Rentrop. The houses consist of prefabricated wooden panels, which were built using ecological construction methods and fitted with green roofs. Right from the start of construction, the project was considered outstanding and visionary throughout Europe.
