Youth Hostels Youth Hostels

Supervised shelter providing

inexpensive overnight lodging,

particularly for young people.

Often located in historic areas,

hostels range from simple farmhouses

to hotels able to house several

hundred people.

Guests often cook their own meals, make their own

beds, and do other chores.

Hostels place limits on the length of

stay and formerly set a maximum-age

limit for guests.

Youth Hostels Youth Hostels

The hosteling movement was founded by Richard Schirrmann,

a German schoolteacher.

He was concerned about the health of young

people breathing polluted air in industrial cities.

Common in Germany in the early 1900s, they

spread through Europe and other parts of the

world after World War I.
