Dear friends, colleagues and companions!
The former school on Bullenhuser Damm in Hamburg-Rothenburgsort is an important memorial to the crimes of National Socialism. On the night of April 20, 1945, twenty Jewish children and at least 28 adults were murdered here by the SS. The “Children of Bullenhuser Damm” memorial, which was established in 1980 as a result of civil society involvement, still commemorates this horrific act today.
The odel project Schule am Bullenhuser Damm is now being developed on this historic site. The former school is to become a place to meet, learn and work for the common good – organized in solidarity and supported by the people who use it. The aim is to create an open space for self-organized and anti-fascist urban production in the vacant rooms.
The project is based on a cooperation with the Hamburg-Mitte district office, Billebogen Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH, Stiftung Hamburger Gedenkstätten und Lernorte and the Vereinigung Kinder vom Bullenhuser Damm.
We are very much looking forward to the next few years at Bullenhuser Damm school, to you and to activating the vacant rooms together!
