Student dormitory as an association,
this is how it works


We are the residents of the maxfrei student dormitory! We shape life here with mutual responsibility for a special place that is more than just a "home" for all of us. We live by shared values such as tolerance, openness and equality. Decisions are made collectively and everyone contributes for the common good.

We enhance our communal living through regular working groups (e.g., sports, cinema, bike workshop, etc.) and events (e.g., summer festival, open-air cinema, concerts, etc.). We make use of the common spaces within the hall of residence to promote better coexistence and take responsibility for their maintenance. We choose our future roommates ourselves. Active participation and engagement are duly rewarded. For all questions and needs, the caretaker on-site serves as a liaison between the association, owner or administration and provides supportive assistance.
