The Japanese House

The Japanese House was founded in 2011 in the vacant premises of Eisenbahnstraße 113b by a group of Japanese architects, artists, urban designers and students of Japanese Studies at Leipzig University. The creators of the project wanted to establish a meeting place for events and to promote Japanese culture. The idea quickly took off and today the Japanese House is a popular meeting place in the east of Leipzig. Among other things, people cook, eat, discuss and learn together here. In the meantime, it is no longer just about Japanese culture here, but about people living together in the city in general. Neighbors and cultures come together in the Japanese House.
