Timeline and Route of the Demonstration
The assembly authority of the city of Jena has approved a route for Thursday evening that extends across central access roads in Lobeda-West. To keep disruptions as low as possible, the protest is divided into three phases:
- 4:30 PM – 5:00 PM: Opening rally on the open space at Karl-Marx-Allee. Initial obstructions are already to be expected in this area.
- 5:00 PM – 5:30 PM: Mobile march. The demonstration route leads from Karl-Marx-Allee via Stauffenbergstraße directly into Werner-Seelenbinder-Straße. During the march, these road sections will be temporarily closed to vehicle traffic.
- 5:30 PM – 9:00 PM: Closing rally in Werner-Seelenbinder-Straße in the area between house numbers 16 and 24. Here, the road will remain blocked until late into the evening.
LISA District Center as a Political and Social Meeting Point
The protest is directed directly against an event of the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party taking place in the LISA district center. The LISA is considered the socio-cultural heart of Lobeda. As a municipal facility, the building otherwise provides space for citizen encounters, family celebrations, concerts, and club work. Due to its central location and large capacity, however, the center is also regularly used for political gatherings and debates, which repeatedly leads to demonstrations in the surrounding area.
🏛️ The LISA District Center in Lobeda
The LISA (Lobedaer Informations-, Spaß- und Aktionszentrum) was designed as a meeting place to enliven cultural life in Jena’s most populous district. In addition to courses and advisory services, it serves as a cross-generational meeting point. Since the protest on Thursday is concentrated directly in front of the building in Werner-Seelenbinder-Straße, visitors to the center and residents in this area must expect cordons and increased noise levels.
