Cultural Heritage

Pagoda in Altlußheim

 

Description

The Pagoda in Altlußheim was built by Laotians from Mannheim, Heidelberg and surrounding areas and opened in 2009. Germany is home to us now, but we would still like to hold on to our traditions. The Pagoda plays an important role in our lives as the Buddhist teachers there give us spiritual advice. We try to find out what is really important in life: In what do we find happiness? In what should we invest our time? The Pagoda is a meeting point for people who had to flee their country.
