The story of the house
Christianshavns Beboerhus was squatted by the people of the quarter in 1975, because they wanted a place to meet for cultural activities.

In 1976, the City council of Copenhagen agreed to buy the house, and people started an association for the users of the house, the "Beboerhusforening".
The house was through the years primarly based on voluntary work.

Today there is a paid staff group of 8 people, supported by a lot of volunteers, that are running the house.

The house is ruled by consensus democracy and autonomy, by the users, the staff and the members of the house association.
It has its own economy, but is supported by the City of Copenhagen.

Christianshavns Beboerhus is for everyone, we try to keep the prices low, so every one can afford to use the facilities of the house.
The most important is to strengthen the grass root spirit, the culture and the music.
