KOMM, Cultural center in central Nuremberg, Germany.
KOMM was a cultural center in central Nuremberg located in the former Künstlerhaus building near the main train station. The venue eventually expanded to approximately 3500 square meters of space dedicated to cultural programming.
The building opened in 1910 and served as a US Army officers' mess after World War II. In 1973 it was converted into a self-managed cultural center.
The volunteer groups running the center organized exhibitions, concerts, and workshops that shaped what visitors could experience there. These activities reflected the interests of people who dedicated their time and energy to the space.
The center was located near the main train station in the city center, making it easy to reach. Different sections of the space could accommodate various types of events and activities.
In March 1981 the center became the focal point of mass arrests during a demonstration when 141 people were detained. This event sparked intense public debate in the city.
