Begjæringen er stilet til: the owner of the house
Across Berlin, the disappearance of cultural spaces is a troubling issue that has garnered widespread attention.
At the end of 2024, we at WATT were informed that the lease for our space at Metzer Straße 9, which expires in September 2025, will not be extended.
This de facto eviction marks the end of ten years of work for a centrally located venue and neighborhood bar that has consistently hosted music, readings, and art.
We demand that the new owners, following their decision to end the lease without negotiation, open up to a discussion about the possibility of preserving WATT. WATT holds great significance for its diverse visitors of all ages and backgrounds.
There is strong public interest in this matter, and we insist it must not be swept aside without dialogue.
Please support our cause with your signature and help us stand our ground!
You can find more information, press releases, voices from the neighborhood, and our current program—updated weekly—on our website.

WATT is our favorite spot in Berlin and perhaps one of my favorite bars in the world! Closing it would be such a shame!
I've frequented Watt since I moved to Berlin in 2018. It is a unique space in an otherwise widely already gentrified neighborhood and I think it would be a great shame if it had to close to make space for some generic business.
Das Watt ist einer der mittlerweile leider wenigen Orte hier, an dem sich verschiedenste Menschen in angenehmer, entspannter und authentischer Atmosphäre treffen. Der Kiez hat in den letzten Jahrzehnten einige Wandlungen erlebt aber das was in den letzten 10 Jahren geschehen ist, verwandelt in hm in einen öden und blutleeren Ort. Dem haben sich Begegnungsstätten wie das Watt entgegengesetzt und eine Alternative geboten. Selbst die Pandemie hat es überlebt. Im Gegensatz zu manch anderen hier. Es wäre schade und tragisch, wenn auch das Watt dem Spießertum weichen müsste. Watt muss bleiben!
