Kultavida is a cultural center located in Ahrensburg, Germany, housed within a former water tower (Wasserturm). Originally constructed in 1908 to provide the town with clean water, the structure was decommissioned in the 1970s. Following extensive renovation in the early 2000s, it was repurposed as a venue for concerts, exhibitions, workshops, and other cultural events. The building’s unique cylindrical architecture contributes to its distinct acoustic properties which are particularly suited to intimate musical performances. Kultavida regularly hosts artists working across diverse genres including jazz, classical music and world music; it's recognized locally for supporting regional and international talent.
