Musik- und Kongresshalle Lübeck, Projected
The Musik- und Kongresshalle Lübeck is a modern event center in the Old City that hosts concerts, theater, and conferences. The building, with approximately 2000 seats in its main hall, offers flexible spaces for many types of events and is used regularly by orchestras and touring artists.
The hall was designed and opened in the mid-1990s by architect Meinhard von Gerkan to host larger events than previously possible. The building underwent renovation in recent years and continues Lübeck's tradition as a musical center.
The hall's name reflects its dual purpose, showing how Lübeck weaves music and gathering together in one space. Visitors experience a place where classical and contemporary artists share the stage, and where residents actively use it as part of their city's cultural life.
The building sits near the Trave River and is easily reached by car or public transport. The location provides good access for visitors coming from different parts of the city and region.
A sculpture called 'The Strangers' by artist Thomas Schütte sits on the roof, showing a group of unusual figures. The artwork symbolizes people who have overcome dangerous or difficult circumstances and started anew.
