Kulturhuset Mazetti, Cultural center in Malmö Centrum, Sweden
Kulturhuset Mazetti occupies the former Mazetti chocolate factory on Bergsgatan in Malmö. The red-brick complex has a long facade meeting a shorter one at a corner, tall pale plaster panels rising to pointed arches between rows of windows, small round blue details high on the wall, and a cylindrical brick chimney with pale spiral bands. It houses cultural activities run under Malmö Municipality.
The building stands on the former grounds of the Mazetti chocolate factory, marking the transformation of an industrial site into a cultural center. This conversion represents how Malmö reactivated old factory spaces to serve contemporary artistic purposes.
The center brings together art exhibitions, dance performances, and theater productions that reflect how Malmö values cultural expression across multiple disciplines. You will find galleries and performance spaces that actively engage local and visiting artists in ongoing creative work.
Kulturhuset Mazetti occupies the former Mazetti chocolate factory on Bergsgatan in Malmö, with several organisations sharing the building under Malmö Municipality. The main entrance is on Bergsgatan, and the red-brick facade with its pale plaster panels and tall chimney is easy to recognise from the street. Each tenant sets its own opening hours, so check the programme of the specific organisation before visiting.
The building housed a Seriecenter, run with the comics association Seriefrämjandet, from 2006 to 2023. It brought together C'est Bon Kultur, Seriestudion and Malmö Kulturskola under one roof. The centre closed in 2023, so the comics activity is no longer there.
