WERKSVIERTEL

The Werksviertel is an arts district that hosts a variety of cultural events and exhibitions, including concerts, performances and art festivals. Once an industrial area housing the Pfanni potato product factory, the site evolved in the 1990s into a nightlife hub with the Kunstpark Ost and Kultfabrik, where graffiti artists from around the world painted the abandoned factory walls. Since the early 2010s, the area has been redeveloped into a creative, mixed-use neighbourhood, blending residential, commercial, and cultural spaces while preserving its legacy as a street art mecca. Co-ordinated by Loomit and home to events such as the Hands Off The Wall Festival, the Werksviertel showcases a diverse range of works by local and international artists.
