Facts and practical information

The Brigitte Reimann Literature House in Neubrandenburg, Gartenstraße 6, is a literary center in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern that was closed at the end of August 2009 by the sponsoring association, Literaturzentrum Neubrandenburg e.V. due to withheld funding of €10,000 from the Schwerin Ministry of Culture.

In November 2009, the literature center was reopened after the sponsoring association and the Ministry of Culture agreed on a temporary solution. According to the sponsoring association, the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania has promised the funding necessary for operation.

On this site was the house where Brigitte Reimann last lived with her fourth husband Rudolf Burgartz until shortly before her death in 1973. The house, which was planned as a memorial, collapsed during renovation work. Today's literature center was rebuilt in its place. In addition to a picture gallery, it also contains Brigitte Reimann's library in her bookcase, which the city of Neubrandenburg acquired from her estate in 1995. Other items from her estate can be seen there.
