The Cultural Centre of European Space Technologies (KSEVT) will be opened in Vitanje in September 2012 and will complement the Herman Potočnik Noordung Memorial Centre. The building design is the work of four architectural bureaus that established the Architectural union for Vitanje (AZZV): Bevk Perović Arhitekti, Dekleva-Gregorič Arhitekti, Ofis Arhitekti and SADAR + VUGA Architects. Its programme is based on the concept of the culturisation of space, introduced by Dragan Živadinov, Dunja Zupančič, and Miha Turšič within the Delak Institute.


Described as 'a living room of Vitanje inhabitants and a space for a synthesis of art and science focused on the post-gravity art' by its inceptors, KSEVT promises an interaction between local, regional, and planetary.

Building

The fascinating building on 2500 m² replaced the old cultural centre and is inspired by the Herman Potočnik's plan for the first geostationary space station from 1928. It is situated in the hilly landscape between the neoclassicist Church of the Mother of God, the gothic Church of St. Peter, and the former Bishop's Mansion.

The ground level includes the Vitanje library and a multi-purpose circular hall with 300 seats. The first floor with research facilities is dedicated to the KSEVT programme.

Programme

The permanent exhibition Herman Potočnik Noordung: 100 Monumental Influences is based on 100 Herman Potočnik Noordung's drawings that he used in his book The Problem of Space Travel - The Rocket Motor.
