Huge success for the Kunstquartier Bethanien: The Bundestag has released a dizzying five million euros for sustainable and historical renovation!

Financed by the “Kulturinvest 2024” program, which supports significant cultural initiatives across Germany, this money is used for urgently needed renovation measures.
on a word, Ms. Herrmann!
District Mayor Clara Herrmann pays respect: "The art district Bethanien has a nationwide radiance as a cultural site. This funding commitment shows how much we would like to appreciate and preserve our cultural treasures. We will renovate and maintain this unique place!" It is the development of a great plan that not only preserves the artist paradise in Kreuzberg, but also polished.
The need for renovation was considerable and acute. With the money, the operation of the art district can be secured - a place that acts as a social hub in the heart of the city. The district office Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg works together with the GSE Society for Urban Development to preserve the unique (socio -on) cultural structures in a municipal building and create new areas for creative minds.

The art quarter not only houses the district facilities such as the Kuntraum Bethanien, the music school and the Fontane Library, but also the International Theater Institute and many innovative art initiatives.
The diversity and the wealth of ideas sprout here from every corner, and now a comprehensive energetic renovation is sought, the culture, monument protection and climate protection unites. The first step was done with the release of the funds, and the district office is already planning a further funding application to give this newly interpreted cultural center an exciting, sustainable future!
