About Connewitz Cannabis Club e.V.

Connewitz is Leipzig’s most politically and culturally distinctive district — a neighbourhood known across Germany for its autonomous left politics, its dense concentration of collective housing projects, its independent cultural venues, and its history of resistance to gentrification. The Connewitz Cannabis Club e.V. is the most explicitly political CSC in Leipzig, situating cannabis legalisation within a broader framework of drug policy reform, anti-prohibition activism, and social justice.

The club’s €15 monthly fee is the lowest in Leipzig and among the lowest in Germany, reflecting a founding commitment to ensuring the CSC model is accessible to Connewitz’s economically diverse population, which includes activists, students, artists, and low-income residents alongside more affluent newcomers. The club operates a solidarity sliding-scale model for members who cannot afford even the base fee, funded by voluntary contributions from higher-income members.

With up to 500 members, the Connewitz club is Leipzig’s largest CSC. Its governance model is explicitly democratic: major cultivation and operational decisions are made by member vote rather than delegated to a small board. Monthly general assemblies — a format borrowed from Connewitz’s tradition of collective decision-making — can run for hours but produce genuine member ownership of the club’s direction.
