The Treibhaus is a cultural center in Innsbruck . It is an important point of contact for music events (especially jazz and world music ), cabaret , theater and other art forms in the city and is also a restaurant.

The Treibhaus association was founded in 1981 as a follow-up project to the autonomous Kulturhaus KOMM, the cultural department of the Austrian Students' Union Innsbruck, founded in 1977 by its chairman Norbert K. Pleifer. Pleifer still runs the greenhouse to this day. Until 1986 it was located on Anzengruberstraße in the Pradl district and was initially designed as a cultural center for the district. At the opening in 1981, the jazz musician Werner Pirchner and the Vienna Art Orchestra played concerts. In the 1980s, the greenhouse was still primarily a meeting place for young people; the Innsbruck city news in 1985 compared it with the arena in Vienna .

In 1986 the cultural center moved to Angerzellgasse near Innsbruck's old town. The new building designed by Rainer Köberl , Raimund Rainer and Gerhard Manzl, a dark octagon, was intended to signal resistance.

Since 1995, the greenhouse organized in collaboration with Leokino Cinematograph an open-air film festival in the courtyard of the armory .
