As a bridge to the Baltic States, our association has been committed to the European idea of the encounter of cultures and bringing people together for 70 years.

The German-Baltic Society (DBGes) was founded in 1950 as the German-Baltic Landsmannschaft i.B. e.V., an association of Baltic Germans from Estonia and Latvia. Its headquarters are in the Reinhard-Zinkann-Haus, the House of the Baltic Germans, in Darmstadt. The DBGes' main aim is to preserve and communicate the cultural heritage of the Germans from present-day Latvia and Estonia and organises meetings and conferences in Germany and the Baltic States for this purpose.

The House of the Baltic Germans in Darmstadt

The imposing villa "Haus Haardteck" at Herdweg 79 is a listed building and was built in 1898 according to plans by Heinrich Metzendorf. At the end of the 19th century, the architect combined elements of historicism with the then new Art Nouveau style. Particularly beautiful details are the sandstone relief on the entrance side with a dragon slayer as a motif, the small fountain in the courtyard and numerous details inside.

In the vernacular, the villa is still called "Pillenburg" today, because its first owner was the son-in-law of the factory owner and pharmaceutical manufacturer Merck. Until 1943, the villa was used as a private residence, after which it served as the headquarters of various offices and, from 1952, as an old people's home for the German Red Cross. In 1983, the owner families Zinkann and Hector handed over the property to the Baltic Germans - since then it has been used in many ways as a conference and meeting centre.

Conference and Meeting Centre "House of the Baltic Germans

Art Nouveau ambience for conferences and festivities

The Centre of the Baltic Germans in Darmstadt is not only a forum for all those interested in the Baltic States - in its people, its history, its culture and its present. The beautiful representative rooms on the ground floor (see floor plan) offer a generous social and at the same time familiar setting for

- Conferences, seminars and training courses

- club meetings

- exhibitions and concerts

- lectures and readings

- Weddings, baptisms, birthdays, confirmations

Events in the venerable Art Nouveau villa have a special, unmistakable flair. The rooms can be used for a variety of purposes, for seminar groups and celebrations for up to 80 people and for concerts/readings for up to 90 people. The house has basic technical equipment for presentation events. A modern kitchen in the basement is available for self-catering for smaller groups.

A reminder of times gone by and yet so modern: Situated on the historic industrial site in Darmstadt-West, the old Motorenfabrik with its 14-metre-long brick front exudes its very own charm as soon as you arrive. Inside, the building also impresses with a mixture of high-quality materials, modern furnishings and remnants from times gone by: Bare brick walls, exposed pipes and much more. The preservation of the original industrial charm creates an unmistakable atmosphere and makes every event unforgettable.

In addition to the unique atmosphere of the old Motorenfabrik, the Loft 111 location offers a particularly intimate and cozy environment for smaller events. Loft 111 cleverly combines the historical charm of the industrial site with modern comfort, making it ideal for intimate celebrations, meetings or special occasions in small groups.

KARLSON - an extraordinary gastronomic and cultural concept located in one of Darmstadt's most important historical sites: the listed Fürstenbahnhof railway station.

The KARLSON combines two exclusive locations under one roof and invites guests from Darmstadt as well as visitors from outside to experience the city's history in a new way:

1. the KARLSON restaurant - with direct access to the spacious 1,000 m² terrace on the former private Fürstenplatz, surrounded by mighty chestnut trees, the historic Fürstenbrunnen fountain and sunny green spaces. It also includes the original Fürstenzimmer, which is now part of the restaurant. This is where modern German cuisine, sophisticated drinks, café culture and wine enjoyment meet an architectural monument that not only breathes history, but brings it to life.

2. the Fürstensaal am Gleis 1 - accessible via the restaurant, an imposing room with 4.5 metre high ceilings and an area of around 100 m², now used as an independent event location. The Grand Duke once waited here for his train to Paris - today the hall serves as a stage for exclusive events, intimate concerts, company celebrations and cultural formats with an unrivalled character.

The location directly at Darmstadt's main railway station - barrier-free access via platform 1 - makes the KARLSON an attractive hub for city visitors, commuters, tourists and Darmstadt residents alike, not only in culinary terms but also in terms of infrastructure.

Whether brunch, modern German dining, bar, wine lounge, café, beer garden (i.e. gastro) or event location: the KARLSON combines historical authenticity with modern, sustainable enjoyment - vegetarian, vegan, organic, regional.

Innovative dishes such as the specially developed ‘Flazza’ (a fusion of tarte flambée and pizza) also reflect the creative approach. The day-drinking formats, culinary summer terraces and the neighbouring ice cream café with unusual flavours make the KARLSON a place for all the senses.

KARLSON stands for GERMAN FOOD CULTURE - interpreted in a modern way and deeply rooted in the city.
