Kulturfabrik Esch-sur-Alzette

Kulturfabrik Esch-sur-Alzette is a cultural centre located in a former slaughterhouse in the city of Esch-sur-Alzette in Luxembourg. As of 2019, the state-funded centre attracts almost 80,000 visitors a year.From the 1880s until 1979, the complex of buildings served as the public slaughterhouse house of the city of Esch-sur-Alzette. Then in 1982 the buildings were squatted by the Theater GmbH, which used the spaces for rehearsals and performances. In 1983, this was formalised by the creation of a non-profit organisation. The Kulturfabrik became a cultural centre with state support in 1996. It received a renovation grant of 1.93 million euros and in 2002 was receiving 308,000 euros yearly to cover running costs. The Kulturfabrik opened officially in 1998.
