Stadthalle Freiburg im Breisgau, Multi-purpose hall in Freiburg, Germany.
Stadthalle Freiburg is a multi-purpose hall in Freiburg im Breisgau designed by architect Albert Maria Lehr. The building contains flexible spaces arranged to accommodate different types of events and gatherings of varying scales.
The building was constructed after the destruction of an earlier hall during bombing raids in 1944 and opened in September 1954. The opening ceremony featured a performance of the Egmont Overture by the city's Philharmonic Orchestra.
The hall has long served as a gathering place for concerts, sports events, and political meetings in the city. Today, various groups continue to use the building for their events and activities.
The location sits centrally in Freiburg and is easy to access. The city's music school operates from here, so visitors may encounter music practice and student activities during their visit.
Between 2008 and 2015, the building served as a temporary location for the university library while the main facility underwent renovation. This was an unusual transformation of an events space into a place for reading and study.
