Rotterdam has a rich and diverse history of squatting. As well as countless houses, many venues and other projects came from the movement. If you know where to look, the city is full of stories.

Read about everything from the Aktiekomittee Progastarbeiders to Zines, with loads of pictures and activist analysis in between. You are guaranteed to learn something new about this grey city and the squatters movement which even now bubbles away within it.
