Description
"Rasthaus in Inamwanga." ("Resthouse in Inamwanga."). A rectangular building made of bricks with a tin roof and a small garden in front of it. The house is surrounded by trees.
In 1936 the missionary Werner Hauffe built this house. Initially it was meant for longer visits of the Mbozi missionary, but at the same time it constituted the beginning of the new mission station Moravia. -- Werner Hauffe (1909-1982) was a carpenter and later a missionary of the Herrnhuter Brüdergemeine. From 1933 to 1939, he served in Rungwe, Utengule and Isoko. In Utengule, he was an assistant to Brother Gemuseus. In 1937 he married Irmgard Wolff.
