Werner-Seelenbinder-Halle, Indoor sports arena in Prenzlauer Berg, Germany.

The Werner-Seelenbinder-Halle was an indoor sports hall in Prenzlauer Berg that could hold around 10,000 people. It featured multiple levels arranged around a central performance space used for both athletic competitions and concerts.

The building opened in 1950 in East Berlin, converted from a former livestock market. Its role changed in 1976 when the Palast der Republik took over as the main gathering place for official events.

The hall hosted the annual Festival of Political Songs every year, bringing people together through music and discussion. It served as a gathering place for those seeking cultural exchange.

The location was well-served by public transportation and situated in a central part of the city. Visitors could reach it easily on foot or by tram from nearby neighborhoods.

The name honored Werner Seelenbinder, a German wrestler who resisted Nazi rule and was executed in 1944. The hall carried his name as a tribute to his resistance.
