Tollhaus

Tollhaus is a cultural center in Karlsruhe located in a converted former slaughterhouse building within Ostauepark. The space accommodates many different types of performances and is used throughout the year for various artistic presentations.

The building originally functioned as a slaughterhouse before being fully transformed into a cultural space. It was later recognized as a heritage monument, marking its importance in the city's urban development.

The name comes from its original role as a toll collection point in the city's past. Today, it serves as a meeting place where different artistic forms and audiences come together throughout the year.

The venue is easily accessible by public transportation and sits beside green spaces perfect for spending time before or after a visit. Checking the event schedule beforehand helps you understand what kind of performance to expect and how the space will be arranged.

The main hall features a retractable seating system that completely changes how the space functions depending on the event. This means you might sit in theater-style rows for one show, then see the same room cleared for a dance performance the next evening.
