IAbout Punkt XII · A place of encounter

A place of encounter, healing and personal growth.

Punkt XII is a registered association and a life's work – grown from the conviction that people need a place where nature, community and conscious living come together.

—Mission & vision

Space for awareness, health and encounter.

Punkt XII is a place of encounter, healing and personal growth. Here nature, community and conscious living merge into a singular experience.

This place is not only meant to inform – it is meant to move people, build trust and awaken the wish to experience Punkt XII in person. That is what this place in the Steigerwald stands for.

“Open your heart and be one with nature.”

—The origins

A place grown over decades.

The association has existed since 2016 – its emergence is documented with activity reports and photographs, so the path from the very beginning to today can be traced.

    1990

    The start of a life's work

    What is Punkt XII today began as a vision in the heart of the Steigerwald – a place built by hand over years. Foundations, walls, beams: all by one's own effort.

    The roof takes shape

    The roof timbers of the house are raised – a visible milestone on the long path of turning an idea into a living, inhabitable place.

—The twelve facets

The “12” is the programme.

The association lives a colourful diversity – its colours were chosen according to Spiral Dynamics. Each facet has its own colour and field. From this diversity a living whole emerges.

The “wheel” shows the concept of the association exactly as it came about: Punkt XII at the centre, the areas around it – each with its own offerings.
