Our sign

The sunflower and the cross.

The sunflower turns towards the light, until its last day. The cross connects the two churches that carry this association. We care for the incurably ill and dying regardless of origin, faith or worldview. We reject active euthanasia. What we do instead is be there.

Supported by the Bavarian State Ministry for Labour and Social Affairs and the Bavarian Hospice Foundation.
