Feierabendhaus Knapsack, Multi-purpose hall in Chemiepark Knapsack, Germany

The Feierabendhaus features an oval floor plan of 45 by 37 meters with a suspended roof supported by two semi-circular arches and steel cables.

Built in 1957 to mark the 50th anniversary of the chemical site Knapsack, the building was designed by architect Karl Hell after winning a competition.

The main hall contains a 700-square-meter space with a 140-square-meter stage, regularly hosting concerts, theater performances, and art exhibitions throughout the year.

The venue accommodates up to 1,300 seated guests or 1,700 standing participants, with 200 parking spaces available for attendees.

The building's construction technique eliminates the need for internal supports through a network of pre-stressed steel cables and reinforced concrete panels.
