!!!Einlegesystem

Einlegesystem (boarding), a type of social welfare institution in 
Austrian villages first introduced in 1863. In municipalities and 
villages without a home for the aged, poor members of the municipality 
were alternately boarded and lodged in various households. Usually 
these people were retired servants, almost 95 % of them were 
unmarried. The system was abolished in Lower Austria in 1893.
