Betriebsgebäude der Hastra

The Hastra operational building is a two-story brick structure with a hipped roof at Kirchweyher Strasse in Weyhe. The structure includes a two-story main section and a single-story extension that together form a compact whole.

The brick building was erected in the 1920s as an operational facility for Hastra, serving administrative and distribution functions for power from the Dörverden hydroelectric station. In the 1980s, it underwent major renovation and was transformed into a community center.

The building today functions as a community gathering place where neighbors come together for various occasions. Its spaces host teaching programs, childcare, and local events, giving the location an active, everyday purpose.

The site is easily accessible from Kirchweyher Strasse and located centrally within Weyhe. Different areas serve specific functions at different times, so visitors should check ahead about current activities and which spaces are available to view.

The building holds official protected monument status, showing how early twentieth-century industrial structures are valued as cultural heritage. Its conversion into a community center demonstrates how historical structures can take on fresh meaning while retaining their original form.
