Alte Feuerwache, Sociocultural center in Cologne, Germany
Alte Feuerwache is a protected building complex in central Cologne with a large courtyard and multiple spaces for events. The former fire station now houses exhibition areas, performance spaces, and workshops used for various types of activities.
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.
The courtyard includes a designated graffiti wall where artists can legally create their work. This area shows how the center actively supports alternative art forms and underground culture.
