Westernstadt Reopens to Visitors as Owner Files Eviction Lawsuit

The landowner seeks to clear the Haselhorst site following the lease expiry.

Overview

  • About 600 people visited on Saturday, according to Ralf Keber of the Cowboy Club Old Texas.
  • Owner Dr. Aldinger & Fischer says the operator is in breach of contract and has filed a Räumungsklage, with further legal steps under review.
  • The lease ended at the end of August, and the owner argues the parcel should be adapted to changes in the surrounding area.
  • The company has pointed to a data center as a preferred redevelopment option for the property.
  • The volunteer club says relocating the roughly two dozen buildings is not feasible, and it is unclear whether the next public open day in October will proceed.
