At the Neuwirt in Wattens, local citizens are co-constructing an inn for the 21st century in a formerly run-down village pub. Together, they are working on creating a public space for new encounters, sustainable coexistence and a reinvigorated public sphere. Neuwirt grows with the people who take care of it. Renovation activities and program curation at Neuwirt are developed collaboratively and change four times a year with the seasons. The program includes talking and listening, building and crafting, playing and making music, celebrating and dancing, exploring and dreaming.
