Halls and Spaces
Halls and Spaces
Fully glazed and transparent with a circular seating arrangement. Ideal for events that emphasize closeness and motivation. What makes the Plenary Hall a viable option: The underground Rhine Passage connects it directly to the main building. This allows the ceremony in the Plenary Hall to be combined with a professional program, exhibition, or banquet in the main building as part of a single event.
An extraordinary venue with a unique atmosphere:
The former plenary hall of the German Bundestag, where members of the Bundestag met from 1992 to 1999. Today, the plenary hall can accommodate events for up to 1,230 people. The plenary floor, including the seats for the parliamentary groups, the government bench, the Bundesrat, and the Presidium, has a total of 734 seats. The gallery seats 496 people.

The spacious lobby and the Rhine Lobby, with a view of the Rhine, flank the plenary hall on both sides. A total of 1,640 m² is available for exhibitions, gala events, or banquets. Banquet tables can seat 790 people, and for standing receptions, the lobby and Rhine Lobby are suitable for events with up to 1,300 guests.
