Trotz Allem

Trotz Allem is a self-managed social centre and youth club in Witten, Germany. The first space was rented from 1999 until 2005. The second space opened in 2006 and reopened after renovations in 2010. The centre hosts various groups and the Gustav Landauer Library Witten.

The initiative for a self-managed, noncommercial meeting point in Witten began in 1998. In March 1999, a former shop in the residential building at Herbeder Straße 8 was rented and in April the Trotz Allem was opened. The shop had first been used by the Witten subsidiary of Deutscher Metallarbeiter-Verband and then by the Communist Party during the Weimar Republic. The name relates to the conservative Kohl era, when similar names to Trotz Allem were used in Witten in the 1980s when an Initiative Trotzalledem from the Witten Green Party published a magazine Trotz-Dem.
