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. Characteristic of the sprawling through many watercourses Spreewald is the block construction, because the abundant and relatively light wood burdened the marshy soil less than a massive stone. Residential and stable area are united under one roof; other outbuildings such as pigsties, bakery houses and sometimes boathouses or an apiary were also built as log cabins. The pictured residential house with reed roof is in the Spreewald Museum Lehde. (Text: Dr. Renate Hilsenbeck, Nuremberg)
