The Tommy Weisbecker Haus is a housing co-operative and self-managed social centre based in an apartment block in Kreuzberg, Berlin, Germany.
It is named after Tommy Weissbecker, a young anarchist who was involved in the 2 June Movement and was shot dead by police on 2 March 1972.
[1] The original plan was for the building to house homeless young people and it was quickly legalized as a shelter project.
This status entitled the group to financial support and when the Senate of Berlin offered an amount the former squatters considered to be too low they organised a mass shoplifting protest.
[2] After the kidnapping of Peter Lorenz in 1975, the house was raided owing to its perceived connection to the 2 June Movement.
