NEW VOLKSHAUS COTTA

Cultural and neighborhood center

We are a project of Konglomerat e.V.

The Neues Volkshaus Cotta (formerly: Richard-Gärtner-Haus) has been open again since April 2023. Countless volunteer hours have been spent refurbishing it since 2019. In addition to studio space for the creative industries, we welcome people from the neighbourhood who want to get involved and help shape our building.

Come to our KIEZ consultation hour every Wednesday from 2 to 5 pm or send us an e-mail mitmachen@neuesvolkshaus.de or give us a call on 0351-27577165.

Konglomerat e.V. and its ESF PLUS-funded project "New People's House for All!" actively advocates the implementation of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN CRPD) .

From 2021 to 2027, the ESF Plus Saxony program is funding a wide range of projects to strengthen employment, education and social integration in the Free State of Saxony. Administered by the Sächsische Aufbaubank - Förderbank (SAB), it supports initiatives in areas such as vocational training, start-up support and urban development. The aim of the program is to improve the participation of all population groups in the labour market and to promote social integration. One focus of the program is sustainable social urban development, which specifically supports projects in disadvantaged districts. This includes projects that improve the living conditions of residents and promote social cohesion and innovative measures. Thanks to our funded project: "New People's House for All!", we will actively shape the development of the funded area over the next 24 months.
