The Volxhaus (formerly People's House and Slovenian Ljudski dom , formerly publishing and printing house "People's Will" ) is an event building in Klagenfurt , originally as a print shop - and newspaper publishing house of the Austrian Communist Party - the organ will of the people was built. The building is listed as a historic monument.
The building was erected in 1948 or 1949 as a printing and publishing building for the people's will that was created in 1945 . The architect was Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky , who is mostly associated with the Frankfurt kitchen . After the people's will was discontinued, the building near the train station is now used by the KPÖ as an event building.
In mid-2015, the event area was taken over by the non-profit organization Event and Culture Center VolXhaus. To date, over 260 events have taken place, including with Russkaja and Wanda . There are also film screenings, vernissages and exhibitions in the Volxhaus repertoire.
