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.
