Ortenauhalle

One of several halls on the Messe Offenburg-Ortenau exhibition grounds, the Ortenauhalle stands beside the Oberrheinhalle, the Baden Arena and the trade-fair halls on a site of some 179,000 square metres in the Baden town of Offenburg. It is an exhibition and event space first — congresses, fairs, conferences — and a concert hall only when the seating is put in, which is the common fate of such buildings across south-west Germany.
