Online dialogue initiated by Landeshauptstadt for brainstorming ideas on the future of AMO Cultural Centre

The iconic AMO cultural house in Magdeburg, a central cultural location and architectural landmark since its opening in 1952, is facing a significant change. The city has announced a citizen participation initiative, inviting experts from the real estate and construction industry, as well as the general public, to contribute ideas for the future of this cultural gem.

The goal is to develop the AMO into an attractive place that sets impulses for the city, beyond classic event formats. Economic considerations are particularly welcome, with submissions on how the future usage concept can be economically sustainable being encouraged.

All information and access to the participation dialogue can be found on the official city website, www.magdeburg.de/amo. Submissions can be made online, and the deadline for ideas is September 30.

Experts from the real estate and construction sector are explicitly invited to participate. Concepts beyond traditional event formats are sought, including cultural and creative projects, education and meeting spaces, and new forms of publicness and exchange.

The AMO will be presented as a potential location at the Magdeburg Real Estate Forum on September 4 and 5. While the exact date for the Real Estate and Construction Forum discussing the AMO's future is not specified in the results, it might be related or a potential forum for discussions.

The Economic Department of the state capital can be contacted for questions at 0391/540 2666 and by email at: [email protected].

It's important to note that not every idea can be implemented, but all contribute to developing a sustainable overall concept for the future of the AMO. The city looks forward to receiving a wide range of creative and innovative ideas to ensure the AMO continues to be a vibrant and essential part of Magdeburg's cultural scene for generations to come.

The AMO cultural house is located in the heart of Magdeburg, the state capital. The listed building has been a part of generations of Magdeburgers, and its future is now in the hands of the community.

In addition to the citizen participation initiative, the AMO will be presented as a potential location at the Magdeburg Real Estate Forum on September 4 and 5. Another notable event scheduled at the AMO is Contaku 2025, from August 16 to 17, 2025, which might provide another opportunity for discussions about the AMO's future.
