Welcome to Kaschta Café
A Taste of Heritage, A Touch of Revolution
A Brand with Meaning
Kaschta Café isn’t just inspired by history—it is rooted in it. Its name honors the first historically recorded prince of Nubia. Its branding is guided by African heritage, ethical business values, and a strong commitment to civic engagement.
Kaschta Café brand is more than just a café brand—it is a cultural landmark and a living expression of history, identity, and inclusive hospitality. Created as non-profit Project by Umbaja Organisation, the café is a unique initiative that brings the legacy of ancient Nubia into the heart of modern Hanover through taste, atmosphere, and storytelling.
Named after King Kaschta, the 8th-century BC ruler and founder of the Napatan dynasty in the Kingdom of Kush, this project evokes the powerful spirit of African civilization and channels it into a vibrant space of exchange, creativity, and empowerment.
Purpose
Kaschta Café was envisioned as a social enterprise with a mission—to offer migrant and refugee communities, especially from Sudan and across Africa, a platform for training, integration, and cultural expression. It blends economic empowerment with education and cultural heritage, using gastronomy as its primary language.
Through professional gastronomy training, the project explores how food and culture are intertwined. It teaches not only the art of preparing rich and healthy meals, but also the importance of storytelling, community, and healing through hospitality. Just as coffee houses in history sparked revolutions, Kaschta Café aspires to ignite social transformation and belonging.
We envision "in furure", Kaschta Café as a green paradise and a spiritual haven—a welcoming space where the aroma of coffee meets the rhythm of heritage. Guests are invited to experience more than food: they are invited into a story of migration, resilience, and shared humanity.
