About

Historika Cultural is a feminist project created by and for women and gender-diverse people.

We believe in building community-based feminisms founded on cooperation, mutual support, and the collective weaving of care networks. We are united in this Community House and Cultural Hostel, which welcomes people from very diverse backgrounds and realities.

We seek to create a Safe Space where we can connect with our purpose, support and care for one another, and strengthen ourselves — opening up to the possibility of simply being, without conditions or judgment. Our approach is intersectional.

Through various collectively organized actions, we work to sustain ourselves autonomously and self-managed.
Our Cultural Hostel is one of the main sources of income for this collective project. Thanks to the visitors who come here, we can continue to exist, open our doors to the community, and create initiatives that improve our quality of life as women and marginalized gender identities.

By staying here, you not only support our initiatives but can also participate in our different areas of community action, such as:

Cooperative cultural events featuring local and international women and gender-diverse artists.

Open mic nights and poetry jams.

Workshops and discussion circles on diverse topics.

Feminist film series.

Community garden with mountain views.

Body training classes and access to training equipment.

We also host an Artist Residency, where we accompany creative processes and help bring artistic initiatives to life.

Above all, at Historika, we value each process and learn every day to build healthy and conscious relationships — validating every story and learning to embrace all realities with love, empathy, and without judgment.

At Historika, we lift each other up to create the reality we all deserve.

We look forward to welcoming you and being part of a transformative experience.

Historika isn’t just an hostel , it’s a special place that i will never forget and it will always have a place in my heart , I felt so warm welcomed by Julia & Janine , I supposed to stay 3 days but i stayed 10 days , I can’t describe enough all those days and nights i spent in the house between the cooking , dancing, singing with all the sisters. Historika is about sharing,caring ,supporting ,loving. You call it your home as soon as you enter this magical place . Muchas Gracias Hermanas ❤️

Quedarse en Historika es como um abraço cálido! La casa es muy linda con un patio lleno de sol en la mañana y así es la gente tambien. Hay un ambiente muy familiar lleno de amor - parece mas comunidad que hostal. Me senti tan bien que a vezes ni queria salir del hostal, preferia participar a las actividades de historika (juegos, música, talleres)! tambien: WiFi buena, camas confortables, desayuno riquíssimo. Muchisimas gracias chicxs, les voy a extrañar ! Un abraço!
