Would you like to get a taste of self-administration and live in a sustainable community? Then you’ve come to the right place here at the ecological and self-managed CA (Collegium Academicum) housing project.
Our old building combines a variety of living concepts. Our goal is to bring together different living environments and to enable more people to be able to be a part of communal, self-managed living. In addition to six social housing apartments and two independently financed apartments, the old building mainly provides living space for young people who are interested in our project and would like to live communally.
The rooms advertised here are located on the 2nd and 3rd floors of our old building and are organized in corridor communities. All rooms can be rented with furniture.
All rooms have the following address:
Ossip-Mandelstam-Straße 1
69126 Heidelberg-Rohrbach
An overview with floor plans, room sizes and rent levels can be found further down on this page.
The private living space is complemented by various rooms that are shared by the entire project: Workshops, assembly hall, multifunctional room, seminar rooms and workrooms. There is also central internet access and plenty of (garden) space for strolling around outside. The building uses an ecological construction method: This includes an insulation standard of KfW 55, interior walls made of straw, passive ventilation, triple-glazed windows and green electricity from its own roof.
You should be in the mood for a colorful house community. Due to our location on the US hospital conversion site, there is currently often a building site around us with the associated noise. There is also a large assembly hall in our new building next door, which is regularly used for events (including parties and other evening events).
