After losing the battle of a “serious illness”.
Regina Baer, cofounder of Tresor, and several other Berlin institutions, died this past July 21st, 2022. According to a post penned by fellow founder Dimitri Hegemann, she passed away due to an undisclosed illness.
Hegemann’s sentiment credits Baer with the creation of Tresor, the non-profit Tresor Foundation, and subsequent venues and projects. “The history of… Berlin’s entire nightlife would be different without her; without her energy, drive, vision, creativity, discipline, and ability to carry others along with her and motivate them,” said Hegemann.
“To me, her advice was always the most important and when I didn’t listen to her, it often turned out to be a mistake. Her true spirit was as compelling as it was contagious, as witnessed by countless artists, Tresor-goers, co-workers, and friends. She was a great, loving mother who, despite sometimes crazy hours and times working on our shared projects, was always there for her children and never forgot those who were most important to her,” he added.
