A lightweight concrete wall in an apartment that is 1.5 meters cannot be load-bearing, right?
And the holes that arise in the concrete after knocking down the wall. Is it just a matter of filling them with gypsum, or is another material recommended?
Grateful for answers:)

Why couldn't it be load-bearing?
 
Okay, so it can be load-bearing even if it's lightweight concrete? Do you see that in drawings or?
 
My basement is made of lättbetong and it is definitely load-bearing :)

Drawings usually provide the answer to the question, yes.
 
Patching up the holes with plaster is what I do most often if you have an elongated "hole" from floor to ceiling after removing a wall. We have taken down a number of lightweight concrete walls in our house. It creates dust like you wouldn't believe!!
 
I knocked down a wall earlier. And then it left an elongated hole in the ceiling.
How do you fill it in?
 
Gypsum plaster is usually the easiest to achieve.
 
I bought something at the paint store that I've forgotten the name of, something with onestep I think. Filled deep holes right along walls with a plastering, nothing that sank or required multiple applications and not a mortar that needed to be mixed and watered for several days.
