Albert-Vahle-Halle

Albert-Vahle-Halle is a dressage stadium in Sportpark Soers with a white steel structure and extensive glass facades. The roof spans across the area and provides seating for about 1200 spectators in stepped rows.

The building was constructed between 2013 and 2014 as a modern sports facility in Sportpark Soers. Its construction was supported by funding from North Rhine-Westphalia and has served the international competition site since completion.

The hall serves as a venue for the annual CHIO Aachen, one of the world's largest equestrian competitions, where riders and horses from many countries gather. Visitors experience the energy of international sporting events and see how the facility hosts various competitions throughout the year.

The hall is well signposted and located centrally in the sports park, making it easy for visitors to find. Ground-level facilities include restrooms, staircases, and elevators for access to seating areas.

The structure uses precast concrete elements for the stepped seating, which can be installed faster and more precisely than traditional construction methods. The roof framework with trapezoidal metal sheets enables large clear spans without interior support columns.
