The original Cabaret Voltaire was founded in 1916, and it was here where the likes of Hugo Ball, Emmy Hennings, Sophie Taeuber-Arp and Jean Arp started the Dada art movement. When the building was about to be turned into a pharmacy and luxury apartments in 2002, a group of self-proclaimed 'Neo-Dadaists' occupied the Cabaret. Two years later, it was reopened and now hosts a museum, a café, a shop and an event venue.
