Can anyone translate the writing on the back of this postcard? It's from the 1920's. I have tried to google things like Vindhimy Farmanburg but no luck.
Here are the photos of the postcard

Would it be possible to add an image of the complete postcard (front and back)? Could be helpful...– tohuwawohuMar 1, 2017 at 15:11

1@Jan Sure about "Fennenberg"? To me, it could also be "Tannenberg". Maybe even this one: gemeinde-tannenberg.de– MatthiasMar 1, 2017 at 21:07

Ich lese zwar Zannenberg (oder ~burg, ~borg), aber Google verbessert zu Tannenberg.– user unknownMar 2, 2017 at 0:44

The text reads as follows:
Siedlung Tannenberg
leider fehlt unser Haus darauf
The reading Tannenberg is more likely than Tennenberg when you compare with other instances of e and a.
The reading darauf is more likely than drauf when you compare with other instances of r.

@Jan: Danke für die Korrektur. Selbstverständlich ist es fehlt und nicht *sieht man [...] nicht – ich hätte es noch einmal lesen sollen …– machMar 1, 2017 at 21:49
