Wittenberg Village: Lutheran Life Communities

Update 6/15/2025: I recently was told that this bankruptcy will probably be finalized in May or June of 2026. Due to the bankruptcy, Wittenberg is not obligated to return the entry fees to residents or former residents. However, they may choose to do so after the bankruptcy is completed in court.

I'm very happy to be living at Wittenberg Village. I feel safe and secure in my home. The staff is friendly, very helpful for whatever is needed. The food is delicious, well prepared and selections can't be beat. Just think, I don't have to cook, clean or mow my lawn! Best of all, no property taxes to worry about paying! I have great neighbors all around me and enjoy this beautiful campus. Come take a look, you'll love it too.

Our mother entered Wittenberg Village in 2011, in the Independent Living section. It is a lovely facility and Mom enjoyed her apartment there, and the many friends she has made.

We have been residents for several months and know we made the best choice. The facilities are beautiful, particularly the Independent Living homes and apartments. The campus is large, quiet and clean and the Crown Point location is very pleasant. Maintenance is first class! Food service is exceptional The cost is appropriate for the level of care. As a Continuing Care Retirement Community, we know Wittenberg will be there as we progress through the next stages of life.

I moved into Wittenberg during COVID, and Jennifer and the staff have done everything possible to make my move as easy as possible. They made sure I was able to keep in touch with my family on the Internet. This place is very friendly and safe, and has a family-like atmosphere. Everybody seems to know everybody by name, both residents and staff. They really care about each other and are friendly and inclusive. Jennifer made me feel like family. She goes above and beyond, always keeping in touch with me and always willing to help with anything that I need. All of the staff that I have met so far, like Jennifer, Greg, Tony, Kelly, Arianna, and Nicole, have been very friendly and helpful to me. I’ve noticed when they’re walking around, if they notice somebody needs help with something
