List of German utopian communities

"The settlement is the way to the healthy, strong human of the future, to a completely new, organic lifestyle and thereby closes all other questions of our times."

"We are striving for the paradise of the earth. [...] We have recognized and banned the inhuman brutality and degeneracy of today's society."

German utopian communities are historic intentional communities that were formed in wake of various social movements from the mid-19th century until the 1930s. Estimates show that around 100 communities were created between 1918 and 1933,[3] but data is unreliable.[4] Although communities were ideologically diverse, they shared a common sense of mission as role models for German society at large.[5]
