ufafabrik

The ufaFabrik is a unique housing project and international culture center located in Berlin, Germany. It was established in 1979 on the grounds of a former UFA film lab, which was slated for demolition. A group of young enthusiasts took over the 18,500 square meter tract to create a community-oriented and environmentally friendly way of life. Today, approximately 30 residents and over 180 employees live and work together, sharing a cultural, creative, and social lifestyle. The ufaFabrik emphasizes internationality, sustainability, self-reliance, and self-realization. It offers a variety of activities and services, including arts and culture, leisure and education, community programs, children's activities, and eco-friendly initiatives. The center also features a circus school, a café, and a variety of events and performances. The ufaFabrik is committed to fostering a safe and lively coexistence within Berlin's urban society.
