Gerlingen inhabitants started off the Johannes Rebmann Foundation to buy the house where the Gerlingen missionary Johannes Rebmann was born and to renovate it. For rescueing and refurbishing Rebmann House the Johannes Rebmann Foundation achieved in the year 2003 prizes:

  • Award for exemplary private initiative in field of preservation of historic buildings and monuments from Denkmalstiftung Baden-Württemberg and
  • the Award "Heimatpflege/Denkmalschutz" from the Forum Region Stuttgart.

To remember the worldwide activities of missionaries from Gerlingen and the in mission busy women the Missionarsstube (Missionarie's room) in Rebmann House was put up. The Missionarsstube is a place of rememberance and getting together. This forms the basis for the tasks of the foundation:

  1. Supporting cultural relations to the countries in which Gerlingen's missionaries were busy

  2. Building up and supporting international connections and relationship for understanding among nations:
    - grant scholarship
    - exchange knowledge and information

An example for the work of the Johannes Rebmann Foundation is the support of the Johannes Rebmann Memorial Library in Kalali, Tanzania, near Kilimanjaro. Children who can't get school qualifications have the chance to read the books in the electrical light of the library.
