Art and culture awaken Biesenthal's old police school to life!

A lot is happening in Biesenthal: On June 21, 2025, the former police school at Uhlandstrasse 14 opens its gates for an exciting cultural event. From 2 p.m. to 8 p.m., the building, which was in the vacancy for a long time, becomes the scene of art and creativity. The event is organized by Culterim GmbH, which is actively committed to the cultural use of unused real estate, as well as bernau-live.de.

The day starts with a "water battle for small and large" at 2 p.m. Here, the participants should not forget to bring changing clothes - in the event that the weather does not play along, Culterim has a surprise. Performances and a beauty salon follow at 3 p.m., while at 5 p.m. Ramschar's live set ensures musical highlights. Cold drinks are offered to all visitors so that visitors can stay happily in this hustle and bustle.

creative revival

The property used for the training and further training of the GDR's People's Police has suffered from vacancy in recent years. Culterim's initiative now breathes new life. Culterim pursues the goal of developing creative solutions against vacancy in many cities. These efforts are in accordance with the national movement to promote intermediate use initiatives that aim to open up unused real estate for art and culture, which on the platform of nationale-stadtentwicklungspolitik.de can be read.

As part of this cultural usage, the former police school will continue to house an artist residence. This type of use not only promotes creative exchange among artists, but also enriches the cityscape of Biesenthal sustainably.

outlook on future events

Another highlight that is already in the starting blocks is the "Open Studies Day" on July 13, 2024. From 2 p.m. to 8 p.m., interested parties can experience the creative atmosphere of the former police school. The program includes a historical tour of the site, children's painting workshops and a final performance with a concert by the singer-songwriter Hannes Wittmer at 6 p.m. These events show that not only art consumes, but also actively designed, what is described in detail by biesenthal.de. With these initiatives,

Biesenthal shows how urban areas can be rethought and enlivened. And if you have become curious, you should mark June 21 and July 13th in the calendar - art and culture are on the program!
