Scheffelhalle

The Scheffelhalle is a cultural venue in Singen designed to host events and gatherings in a wooden-structured building. The hall includes exhibition areas and a stage for various performances and community activities.

The original building was constructed in 1925 to host a major music festival and later served as a hospital during World War II. It burned down in 2020 and is being replaced with a new structure.

The hall takes its name from writer Joseph Victor von Scheffel, whose novel Ekkehard is set in Singen. This connection ties the building to a significant literary figure in the region's history.

The new building will be accessible and capable of accommodating various event types when it opens in 2025. Visitors should check what kind of event is scheduled to plan their visit appropriately.

When it opened in 1925, singers from numerous different clubs gathered for a major festival at the site. The event attracted a large crowd and marked an important moment in the local music scene.
