Hof Akkerboom

Hof Akkerboom is a timber-framed heritage complex in Kiel's Mettenhof district featuring traditional northern German architecture with two barns and a cobblestone courtyard. The site today operates as a cultural center hosting various public events and private gatherings.

Built in 1797 as a working farmstead, the site faced demolition in 1981 before local citizens established an association to restore and repurpose it. This community effort beginning in 1982 transformed it into the cultural space it remains today.

The farmstead serves as a gathering place for theater performances, music events, and dance shows throughout the year. These activities bring together residents and visitors, making it an active part of the neighborhood's cultural life.

Various spaces throughout the site can be rented for private celebrations and gatherings by contacting the rental office. The location works well for both public events and smaller group functions depending on your needs and timing.

After a fire in 2015, the main building underwent full reconstruction that kept its historical exterior while updating the interior spaces. This blend of historic shell and modern facilities shows how old structures can serve contemporary needs.
