Neues Volkshaus Cotta

The NEW VOLKSHAUS COTTA

A cultural and neighborhood center

We are a project of Konglomerat e.V.

Since 2019, the Neue Volkshaus Cotta (formerly: Richard-Gärtner-Haus) has been renovated with countless volunteer hours and has been open again since April 2023.
In addition to permanent tenants from the creative industries, people from the neighbourhood have the opportunity to make offers, get involved in working groups, organize events and help shape the programme.

Feel free to drop by and get involved
or write us an email mitmachen@neuesvolkshaus.de
or call us on 0178 - 961 76 83
(we can usually be reached on Mondays and Wednesdays).

Would you like to rent a room from us?

We have rooms and workspaces for the arts and creative industries.
We would be happy to show you what options are available on site.

Current events

In addition to regular offers from the neighborhood, various events take place.
We publish the dates in a flyer that appears every 2-3 months.
