Hanzas Perons. Former cargo station transformed into Culture Venue
Hanzas Perons (Hanza Platform, in English), the former cargo railway warehouse — combining old and new elements, where charm of the heritage and innovations of the new architecture blend in harmony, where respect for history is reflected in elaborate modern solutions, giving new life to the old. Old warehouse upcycled to multipurpose venue — for concerts, exhibitions, banquets and other gatherings now stores and deals with the ‘goods’ of culture.
