Annette Ahme (born October 31, 1957 in Backnang ) is a German historian and former politician ( Alternative List for Democracy and Environmental Protection (AL), later incorporated into Alliance 90 / The Greens) in the Berlin House of Representatives .

education

Annette Ahme was born as the third of four children in Backnang and grew up in Wolfstein (Rhineland-Palatinate). After graduating from high school in Kaiserslautern , she went to Nice (France) as an au pair for a year in 1976 and then studied German in Marburg and Berlin. She completed her second degree in Ancient and Modern History as well as Ancient Languages ​​at the TU Berlin in 1994 .

Political work

From 1977 to 1982, Ahme continuously built up the Chamissoplatz tenants' council in Berlin-Kreuzberg and forced the occupation of the rear buildings, which, according to the Berlin Senate's renovation strategy , were to be demolished. For the Alternative List for Democracy and Environmental Protection (AL), she was twice in the District Assembly (BVV) in Kreuzberg from 1981 to 1989 in accordance with the then rotation principle , and from 1985 to 1987 with a mandate in the Berlin House of Representatives represented. As a construction consultant and press spokeswoman for the party, she sat down u. a. for maintaining the rental price control in Berlin.

Ahme toyed with the idea of ​​founding his own party, "which puts the emphasis on the appearance of the city and life in it, on traffic, living, working, living". In 2001 she ran unsuccessfully as a member of the Statt Party for the Berlin parliament.

Volunteering

Together with her husband, the architect and monument protector Helmut Maier, she carried out petitions for the historic center in all Berlin districts from 1995 and strengthened the Society Historisches Berlin , of which she was chairman and managing director, from 23 to almost 3,000 members. The goals were, for example, the reconstruction of the Berlin Palace and the building academy , the restoration of the historic town hall bridge and resistance to the “disgrace” of the Museum Island with new buildings.

Annette Ahme was involved in the founding of the Active Museum (1983), the Max Liebermann Society (1995) and the Heinrich Zille Society (1999) and is a board member of the Support Group for the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe .

In 2018, it generated a lot of media attention with a 77-day demonstration against the construction of the "unity seesaw" , whereby the protest was not directed against the monument itself, but only against a location in front of the Berlin City Palace and instead suggested the Platz der Republik .
