Tonhalle, Concert hall in Zürich, Switzerland
The Tonhalle features two concert halls integrated within the Kongresshaus complex, with the main hall accommodating performances of classical and contemporary music.
The concert hall opened in 1895 on Lake Zurich's shore, with inaugural performances conducted by Friedrich Hegar and composer Johannes Brahms.
The ceiling of the main concert hall displays five paintings, including the central 'Composers' Heaven' with portraits of Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and other masters.
Following extensive renovations from 2017 to 2021, the venue now provides modern facilities while maintaining its exceptional acoustic properties for musical performances.
The hall's architectural design drew inspiration from Paris's Palais du Trocadéro and Leipzig's Gewandhaus, creating a distinctive presence on Zurich's lakeside promenade.
