Where culture goes to school
Essen
Grend, Westfalenstraße 311, 45276 Essen
The Grend Cultural Centre is housed in a listed former church school. But instead of a blackboard, chalk and school books, here you'll find a forum for the creative arts, with blues, world-music, rock and pop concerts, regular poetry slams, theatre performances and art workshops. A particular highlight is a night at the Freudenhaus. The 'Rhur comedy' genre was practically invented at this theatre! Just drop in and see it for yourself – purely on a whim is the best way. At the end of the evening, we guarantee you'll still be smiling when you get back to the hotel!
