Ravello Auditorium, Concert hall in Ravello, Italy
The Oscar Niemeyer Auditorium features white curved lines and modern design elements, accommodating 400 seats for musical performances in its main hall.
The concert hall, completed in 2011, represents one of the final architectural projects by Brazilian designer Oscar Niemeyer before his death in 2012.
The auditorium serves as a primary venue for the Ravello Festival, presenting classical music performances, jazz concerts, and artistic exhibitions throughout summer months.
Located on Via della Repubblica, 100 meters from the main tunnel leading to Piazza Vescovado, the venue maintains regular opening hours for tours and performances.
The modernist structure stands in stark contrast to the medieval architecture of Ravello, positioned 365 meters above the Mediterranean Sea on the Amalfi Coast.

Oscar Niemeyer shaped Brazilian modernism with his concrete constructions featuring bold geometric forms. In Brasília, the capital he helped design, the Cathedral stands out with its sixteen columns rising 40 meters (131 feet) high, while the National Congress combines two 28-story towers with opposing domes, one facing upwards for the House of Representatives, the other downwards for the Senate. The Niterói Contemporary Art Museum, with its circular shape resting on a central support, overlooks the bay of Rio de Janeiro. His work extends beyond Brazil. In Paris, the headquarters of the French Communist Party reflects his architectural vision, as does the Asturian Cultural Center in Spain. These international projects extend the architect’s influence beyond his homeland. In São Paulo, the Copan Building showcases its curved S-shaped facade stretching 115 meters (377 feet), containing 1,160 apartments across 32 floors. These works embody a modernist approach favoring concrete structures, geometric volumes, and natural light integration.
