The Kulturzentrum Bremgarten (KuZeB) is a Swiss autonomous social centre and event venue that emerged from a former squat in 1992. It is located at Zürcherstrasse 2 in Bremgarten and is considered a symbolic place of the autonomous movement in the canton of Aargau as well as a meeting place for supra-regional social, cultural and politically motivated activities of the left-libertarians. Events of various kinds such as concerts, readings, discussions, information and counselling evenings take place regularly.

The buildings are those of the former Meyer & Co. textile factory, which was founded in 1893. The complex consists of a dwelling house built in 1838 and the two factory buildings.
