Registered Association elixir Dresden – experiment centre for intercultural life in Dresden

About us

The club was founded in January 2016 by ten people, who joined their forces to create a place in Dresden where refugees as well as other residents of Dresden could come together despite their differences in language skills, cultural background and lifestyle.

Our services

Elixir Dresden e. V. is committed to creating an intercultural center for encounters, culture and learning. Likewise, a new social and inclusive living space for around 150 people in new buildings and in a renovated old building is to be created. This is to be implemented by a cooperative for intercultural life, for living and working, which will in the future reflect the diversity of the people living in Dresden.

Registered Association of the Civic Centre of Johannstadt City District

About us

JohannStadthalle e. V. (Civic Centre of Johannstadt) is made of three institutions – club house “Active Living”, culture centre JohannStadhalle and meeting point BundschuhTreff. The combination of the three centres offers a huge space and selection of activities that enable to spend active free time. Here the young and the old meet to exchange ideas and to learn from each-other. All three community centres are open for everybody.

In July 2014 the organisation expanded its activities further in the city district and started to carry out meetings under the name of BundschuhTreff at Bundschuhstraße 13 in Dresden-Johannstadt. The three rooms, which are located in a highrise, are well equipped and give the residents the opportunity to engage in social interaction and exchange by meeting in a relaxed atmosphere.
