Liebig 34
Liebigstrasse 34, known as Liebig 34, was an anarchist squat in the Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg district of Berlin.
Liebig 34 in 2018
The squat was formed in 1990 during the Peaceful Revolution and was later legalized. In 2015, its 35 residents described its culture as a queer, anarcho-feminist collective.[1] The building became a symbol for Berlin leftism before a court ordered its residents' eviction. The squat was emptied by 1,500 police members on October 9, 2020, ending 30 years of occupation. Residents resisted passively and were carried out by a firetruck ladder.[2]
