E-Werk

E-Werk is a multi-purpose hall in Saarbrücken featuring a steel frame structure with brick infill and large arched windows at both ends. The interior space accommodates up to 3,200 standing visitors or 2,000 seated guests depending on the event setup.

Built in 1908 as an electrical power station for the Burbacher Hütte industrial works, the structure housed turbines and generators for electricity generation. It was later restored and reopened in 2000 as a modern event venue after its industrial function ended.

The name reflects its original purpose as a power station, and today it serves as a venue for concerts, exhibitions, and gatherings. This transformation shows how the city's industrial past integrates into contemporary cultural activities.

The venue offers 500 parking spaces and has direct access to public transportation for easy arrival. The flexible interior space and good accessibility make it suitable for various types of events and gatherings.

The hall retains an operational horizontal crane rail from its manufacturing era, creating a physical link between its past industrial function and present use. This working element serves as a daily reminder of the site's manufacturing heritage for those who visit.
