Alte Feuerwache, Sociocultural center in Cologne, Germany

Alte Feuerwache is a sociocultural center in Cologne's Agnesviertel, housed in the main fire station building completed in 1890 on a roughly 5,000 m² plot near today's Ebertplatz. It is one of the first buildings erected in the district, alongside Neusser Straße 47. The self-governed center gives social, ecological and democratic initiatives and associations space for meetings and work.

The building was originally a fire station and was converted into a cultural center in the 1970s. Local initiatives led this transformation to create a space for artistic and community development.

The center serves as a gathering place where people from different walks of life participate in workshops, exhibitions, and events. It functions as an open space where artistic and community activities happen side by side in a natural way.

The location is easily reached by subway from several directions, with Ebertplatz station nearby. It is a well-accessible site with adequate parking and good public transportation connections.

In 1980, a large mural with a poem by Nazim Hikmet was painted on the south fire wall facing Sudermanplatz, and it shaped the neighbourhood's appearance for years. The building is one of the first structures built in the Agnesviertel, alongside Neusser Straße 47.
