Kultur- und Kongresszentrum is designed as a multi-purpose venue, of which the largest hall is designed as proscenium theatre with a fly tower.
Kultur- und Kongresszentrum covers an area of 3,000 m² and is a venue with a remarkably flexible interior layout. Its venues and foyer areas can be combined into 20 different room layouts. The auditorium of the main stage can be divided into three areas and can accommodate up to 1,680 people.
With more than 400 performances per year and events such as plays, concerts, cabaret, and congresses the Kultur- und Kongresszentrum is a cultural landmark for the region. In 2008 it was awarded with the “Best Center Award” by the European Association of Event Centres (EVVC).
As part of a general refurbishment, the entire overstage machine system of the main stage including the iron curtain was renewed. The integration of all systems was a major challenge due to the unconventional spatial geometry of the fly tower.
The overstage machinery system includes a concert shell that can be setup in two configurations.
As the Auditorium is used for a variety of different events, 27 Point Hoist Winches were installed above the ceiling of Auditorium.
