Դիմումը հասցեագրված է. the owner of the house

Across Berlin, the disappearance of cultural spaces is a troubling issue that has garnered widespread attention.

At the end of 2024, we at WATT were informed that the lease for our space at Metzer Straße 9, which expires in September 2025, will not be extended.

This de facto eviction marks the end of ten years of work for a centrally located venue and neighborhood bar that has consistently hosted music, readings, and art.

We demand that the new owners, following their decision to end the lease without negotiation, open up to a discussion about the possibility of preserving WATT. WATT holds great significance for its diverse visitors of all ages and backgrounds.

There is strong public interest in this matter, and we insist it must not be swept aside without dialogue.

Please support our cause with your signature and help us stand our ground!

You can find more information, press releases, voices from the neighborhood, and our current program—updated weekly—on our website.
