Info

Nestled in the vibrant district of Kreuzberg, just a stone's throw from the Hallesches Tor stop on the U-Bahn, Horst Krzbrg was more than just a nightclub; it was a cornerstone of Berlin's eclectic electronic music scene. This medium-sized, one-room club rose to prominence with its simple yet versatile atmosphere, which could effortlessly accommodate a myriad of electronic music styles. Known for its musical flexibility, Horst Krzbrg eschewed the traditional model of having resident DJs, allowing it to host a diverse array of sounds and artists.

This openness to different genres and styles made it a beloved venue among both artists and club-goers seeking an authentic Berlin nightlife experience. One of the standout events that cemented Horst's reputation was Wax Treatment, a night dedicated to the deep, resonant beats of techno, dub, and bass, curated by DJ Pete and the influential Hard Wax camp. The club's lack of a stringent door policy further enhanced its inclusive vibe, inviting a diverse crowd to dance until the sun began to rise.

Sadly, the venue closed its doors in February 2013, marking the end of an era for many of its loyal patrons. However, the legacy of Horst Krzbrg lives on through the memories of the unforgettable nights and the artists who graced its decks. Notable artists who have performed at Horst Krzbrg include DJ Pete, Mark Ernestus, Katovl Menovsky, Nils Ohrmann, and Rcrusoe.

Their performances helped shape the club's legendary status within Berlin's nightlife circuit.
