Hall (local)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Outdoor dance hall 1938

Diele is now a largely outdated term for designating bars.

The term comes from North German, where the term means "vestibule". Probably derived from “dance in the hall”, the term was used for dance halls at the beginning of the 20th century. However, Martin Kothing's “Landbuch von Schwyz” from 1850 already contains evidence of the term “Tanztili (ie dance hall)” for dance halls operated ex officio at that time, the existence of which Kothing traces back to 1798.

The term was partly used as a generic identifier in the first half of the 20th century (for example, “Dielenbummel” was mentioned), but it was also part of the name of numerous restaurants. B. in Berlin in the 1920s the “monocle floorboard” or the “Hohenzollern floorboard”.

The term “ ice cream parlor ” was formed analogously to the “dance hall” , here the part of the name is still used in the present.
