Haus der Architektur Köln, Architectural center in central Cologne, Germany
Haus der Architektur Köln is a center dedicated to architecture, urban planning, and construction culture in the region. It functions as an exhibition space, discussion forum, and venue for professional and public debates about the built environment.
The institution began in 2005 when a group of citizens came together to promote architectural education and dialogue. The center later found its home in the distinctive Kubus building, which itself became a symbol of its mission.
Events here connect professionals and visitors directly, especially at regular Tuesday evenings where speakers sit among the audience and engage in conversation. This open approach makes architecture a topic that concerns everyone.
The center organizes over 300 events per year, including exhibitions, lectures, and discussion panels on various aspects of construction culture. Visitors should check the website to find out what events are happening during their visit.
The center participates in the initiative '1000 Chairs 1000 Trees', a project to improve urban climate through green space design. This connection between architecture and environmental responsibility shows a practical approach to sustainable city development.
