Rettet das Dorf

Save the Village

Images of village life with a lively square, bakery, butcher’s shop or the local farm are no longer common in the central European village reality. Are villages really doomed? After all, many people either dream of a life in the countryside or never want to leave “their” village. Save the Village explores the factors behind village decline and suggests new options for village life in our globalized world.
