History and description

The "sculptor and photosoph" Max Dans, who was born in Bottrop in January 1945 in an air raid shelter, bought the bunker in Bunnenbergstrasse in the capital of Lower Saxony for DM 40,000 in the second half of the 20th century . After creating enlarged window and door openings, numerous balconies and installations in the 1.40 meter thick walls of the gray concrete cube , he set up practice rooms for music groups and studios for artists in addition to living rooms .

Since the 1990s, the culture bunker has been the setting for numerous events such as readings, concerts and exhibitions. In 2003, for example, the building was used by the students of the Integrated Comprehensive School Büssingweg, supported by the theater pedagogue of the Creo Gundel Gebauer association and the Hanoverian composer Christof Littmann , for the performance of a music and theater play, during which film recordings were also made.
