Aula der Alten Universität, University assembly hall in Old Town, Heidelberg, Germany
The Aula features neo-Renaissance architecture with decorated ceilings, wooden paneling, and a gallery dividing the space into two levels.
Built between 1712 and 1735, the assembly hall underwent renovation in 1886 to commemorate the university's 500th anniversary under architect Josef Durm.
The hall displays portraits and busts of notable scholars, including chemist Robert Bunsen, along with a central painting depicting the university's foundation.
The venue accommodates 320 people and provides essential technical equipment, including microphones, projector, screen, and a concert grand piano.
The front wall exhibits a symmetrical design with Ferdinand Keller's painting featuring Pallas Athena and figures from university history.
