About us
A place to connect
Kulturkirche Altona GmbH is a commercially acting company which simultaneously supports the urban
culture of Hamburg. As a co-operation partner of the parish of Altona-Ost, Kulturkirche Altona GmbH
leases the church-building of St. Johannnis for cultural and commercial use.
By commercial lease money is generated, which supports financing the maintenance expense of the
church-building. Regularly the church is a place for church services, sacred music and other parish
events. These events emboss the premises as well as dances, company parties, fashion shows and pop
concerts.
Positive side effect: Gainings of the Kulturkirche Altona GmbH are payed over to a foundation which
helps needy and homeless people with finding a new home.
Please be imaginative and creative for an event of your choice at one of the most exceptional event
locations in the centre of Hamburg:
Receptions (in spalten anordnen wie auf deutscher Seite)
Company Parties
Weddings and Festivities
Concerts
Fashion Shows
Exhibitions
