The St.Georges-Orphanage

   The St.Georges-Orphanage originally was the country house of a count. He let it be built for his wife, who he loved more than anything. It is a huge complex which can actually already be called a castle. In the back of the complex there is a church, beneath which corridors are assumed that lead to a an underground cathedral. It is said to have been built for later being the grave of the married couple. Others say that it existed long before.

   For about twohundred years the complex was abandoned, until a small fraternity which chose the Holy George as their guide, settled down their, as the country house was without known owner. In decades lasting works they made the castle habitable again and after some time the monestry became an orphanage. The children were taught by a part of the by then almost twohundred friars, as the next schools, like today, were in London and; a little town back then; Luton.

   After the fraternity was forced to demise in the twenties, the St.Georges-Orphanage was state business now. Since then nothing really changed. Except that the methods of teaching eased a bit.
