Wohlfühlhof Zeh is a farm animal sanctuary in Waltenhofen, Germany.[1] It was originally a dairy farm. The sanctuary's founder Hans-Peter Zeh had inherited the farm in the third generation.[2] In 2014, he converted it to a sanctuary and kept his remaining cows[1] to let them live out their natural lifespans.[3] As of 2022, the sanctuary houses 23 cows, 27 chickens, eight cats, seven goats, and four ducks.[4][5][6] It derives income from renting out holiday apartments on its premises, and from donations.[5]
