Windenburg – A World Where History Meets Urban Life!
The second expansion pack for our favorite game, Sims 4: Get Together, introduced us to the lovely world of Windenburg. It is heavily inspired by old German architecture and timber-framed houses and is built in a stunning valley below icy mountains. Its history is rich, and there are a few old ruins around the world to attest to that. A peace-loving farmer and a party lover can both happily co-exist here, as Windenburg doesn’t only have lovely countryside, but also a lot of cool places for partying. Everything in this world is a blend of history and urban life – and we love every bit of it! Let’s take a mini tour and get acquainted with the lots and uniqueness of every neighborhood, shall we?
Windenburg Families And Neighborhoods
Windenburg features four unique neighborhoods: Windslar, Olde Platz, The Crumbling Isle, and the Lykke Centre. There are 3 special lots like mini neighborhoods, and 27 lots in total, 14 of which are residential. There are many Fachwerkhaus-style homes, but also some contemporary builds, both communal and residential. If you travel or move here, you can meet 8 new pre-made families and two ghosts:
- Behr family (Yuki and Candy)
- Bjergsen family (Bjorn, Clara, Elsa and Sofia)
- Bro household (Sergio Romeo and Joaquin Le Chien)
- Free Spirits household (Ulrike Faust and Maaike Haas)

- Munch family (Gunther, Mila, Lucas and Wolfgang)
- Partihaus household (Marcus Flex, Jade Rosa, Paolo Rocca, and Eva Capricciosa)

- Bernard and Mimsy, non-playable ghosts who live in Von Haunt Estate
Now, onto the neighborhoods and special lots!
