Home for the Blind

Home for the Blind in Kowloon

The house was founded by the "Hildesheimer Blindenmission", Germany;  "Hildesheim Mission for the Blind". It is an early forerunner of what is todays "Ebenezer School & Home for the Visually Impaired" in Pokfulam. The lot of land was donated by Queen Voctoria in 1901.

Hi Chris, I came across your few posts on the home for the blind and find it very interesting. If you don't mind could you share the source of the photos and reports you found? I found a Chinese address of 九龍土瓜灣心光院德律風一百零一號 (allegerdly the address of the home for the blind)  but i couldn't locate it on the old maps.
