Ocambo-Club, Early dance club at Herrenteichsstrasse, Osnabrück, Germany
The Ocambo-Club featured a dedicated record bar where DJs announced and played vinyl records instead of traditional live band performances.
Opening its doors on May 15, 1959, the Ocambo-Club transformed from a Viennese café into one of Germany's first establishments to introduce recorded music for dancing.
The venue brought South American influences to Lower Saxony through its interior design and music selection, attracting numerous guests from across the region.
The establishment operated with regular evening hours starting at 7 PM, while offering additional afternoon tea dances on Saturdays and Sundays from 4 PM.
Professional boxer Hugh Mackie from British Guyana worked as the club's doorman, while actor Johannes Heesters frequently visited the establishment during its prime years.
