Konzerthalle Bad Salzuflen, Concert hall in Bad Salzuflen, Germany.
Konzerthalle Bad Salzuflen is a concert hall in Bad Salzuflen, built from 1960 to 1963 to a design by Wilhelm Müller. The steel skeleton structure has a flat overhanging roof, pale stone walls and a row of tall vertical windows behind a light mullion grid, with the inscription KONZERTHALLE above the recessed glass doors. The auditorium seats 1,200.
The venue opened in 1963 following designs by architect Wilhelm Müller and received protected monument status in 2005. Recent renovations have preserved the original structure while updating technical systems and safety features.
The Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie gives regular symphony concerts here, including a festival at Pentecost, and the Oratorienchor Detmold, a choir of the Musikhochschule Detmold, also performs in the hall. The foyer hosts art exhibitions alongside the concert programme.
The hall and adjoining Wandelhalle sit at the entrance to the Kurpark, with the main doors reached by shallow steps across a paved square. Barrier-free access was created during the 2009/10 renovation, which also replaced the glazing and improved fire protection. The foyer doubles as an exhibition space, so it can be busy before concerts.
The hall was designed by Wilhelm Müller, Oberbaurat in the building department of the Landesverband Lippe, together with the adjoining Wandelhalle; the two form an ensemble at the Kurpark entrance. The steel skeleton structure with flat roofs, broad glass fronts and stone-clad walls is counted among the spa architecture of the 1960s.
