Lebenshof Wietstock's Annual Summer Festival: A Celebration of Compassion
Last Saturday, the annual summer festival took place at the Lebenshof animal sanctuary in Wietstock, Brandenburg, Germany. The event, which is held to celebrate compassion for animals, community togetherness, and sustainability, was a resounding success.
The festival provided a unique opportunity for attendees to meet various forgotten and unwanted animals in a comfortable environment. The pigs, a mix of mini pigs and wild boars, who were rescued from a community garden in Ferdinandshof, have recovered well and are now thriving at Lebenshof. Alongside the pigs, rescued rabbits are also currently living at the sanctuary.
Visitors at the summer festival showed a keen interest in the pigs' well-being, and almost every guest brought treats and food donations to the event. The donkeys, goats, geese, ducks, swans, and guinea pigs, whose sad stories were shared by Peter Rotter, the operator of Lebenshof, also enjoyed the extra attention from the festival attendees.
The festival was well-attended by animal lovers from the region and beyond. Verona Krumbholz from Eggesin attended the summer festival, having always wanted to visit. Cat Sven greeted all visitors at the gate of the summer festival.
Peter and Daniel Rotter, operators of Lebenshof, along with Sarah Splittgerber, hosted the summer festival. The event included guided tours of the sanctuary, educational sessions about animal welfare, veganism, sustainability practices, and how to support animal sanctuaries. Live music, children’s activities, vegan food stalls, and sometimes craft markets added to the festive atmosphere.
Lebenshof Wietstock is an animal sanctuary known for taking in animals saved from factory farms, slaughterhouses, and neglectful situations. Many animals come with tough histories but are given a peaceful home and the chance to live out their natural lives free from harm. The sanctuary often shares detailed stories and pictures of individual animals on their website or social platforms to connect supporters with the beings they are helping.
