Feierwerk, Munich, Youth and cultural centre in Sendling-Westpark, Munich, Germany
Feierwerk is a youth and cultural centre on Hansastraße in Munich's Sendling-Westpark district, housed in the former, partly listed buildings of the Leonhard Moll AG construction firm. Its two building sections hold the concert venues Orangehouse, Hansa 39 and Kranhalle, the Sunny Red club and the Dschungelpalast multi-generation house. The site also hosts Radio Feierwerk, the Fachstelle Pop and the FIRM office on right-wing extremism.
Feierwerk began in 1982 as a student project group and was registered as an association in January 1983. It occupies the former, partly listed buildings of the Leonhard Moll AG construction firm on Hansastraße. The first Rock Feierwerk band competition followed in 1984, and in 1986 the group made its first attempts at an alternative radio station.
Feierwerk was founded in 1982 as a student project group and became a registered association in January 1983. Its annual Flowerstreet Festival has been organised since 2009 by musician and label owner Amadeus Böhm. The venue also runs Radio Feierwerk, whose children's radio project Radio Maroni won the German Children's Culture Prize in 2000.
Feierwerk occupies the former Leonhard Moll AG works on Hansastraße in Sendling-Westpark, split between two building sections. The concert rooms are small, holding between 50 and 400 visitors, so several concerts of different genres can run at the same time. The site also houses Radio Feierwerk, the Fachstelle Pop and the FIRM office; a young artists' exhibition room (Farbenladen) and a skate area are close by.
The site's buildings belonged to the Leonhard Moll construction firm and are now partly protected as historic monuments. Since 2009, musician and label owner Amadeus Böhm has held the Flowerstreet Festival on the grounds each year.
