description
The hall on the northern outskirts of the city was completed and inaugurated in 1989. A striking external feature is the light blue roof construction, on which a photovoltaic system was installed in 2014 . The total usable area is 5,060 m², the interior 3,000 m². It is 77 m wide, 116 m long and 12 m high. The enclosed space amounts to a total of 60,500 m³. There are grandstands on the long sides of the hall area, one of them with fixed seats, the other extendable. If both grandstands are used, a total of 1668 numbered seats are available, divided into blocks. With maximum seating in the entire hall area, the total capacity of the hall is 3864 seats. A gallery runs all around above the grandstand area, on which there are two counters, additional open spaces and toilets. The main entrance on the south side of the building leads directly to the gallery level. Around 600 parking spaces are available on an unpaved open space to the northwest of the hall.
During the week, the hall is available for school sports from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and club and company sports from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.
In 2015, the August-Schärttner-Halle provided shelter for up to 1,025 refugees for four weeks before the emergency accommodation moved to Hanau Housing on the site of the former Pioneer barracks in the east of the city.
