Kongresshalle Leipzig, Concert hall and multi-purpose venue near Leipzig Zoo, Germany

The Kongresshalle Leipzig features a 50-meter tower and stretches 77 meters along Pfaffendorfer Straße, incorporating architectural elements from the Jugendstil period.

Built in 1899 as a social hall for the Leipzig Zoo, the venue served as the primary performance space for the Gewandhaus Orchestra until 1981.

The venue contains multiple halls, including the Großer Saal, Weißer Saal, and Pfauensaal, each hosting various concerts, exhibitions, and conferences throughout the year.

The multi-purpose areas offer flexible configurations, accommodating up to 513 seats in rows or 740 guests for banquet settings across 1408 square meters.

Following extensive renovations from 2001 to 2015, the building reopened with four new congress halls in the north wing while maintaining its historical features.
