Adolf Mundheim was a Jewish civil engineer who fled Hanover, Germany during Nazi occupation. He came to live on the Kinderfarm at Ballyrolly House, Millisle, Co. Down.
There, he oversaw building projects of structures, some of which remain at the site in Millisle, Co. Down. As well as completing a twin-gabled byre, Mundheim also organised fellow refugees to make their own concrete breeze blocks on the farm.
