history

Sports and congress hall Rostock (1982)

Due to the growing number of inhabitants and the importance of Rostock as a district town, it became necessary to build a multi-purpose hall that was well suited for cultural and sporting events. A new venue for indoor handball games of the largest handball club in the city, SC Empor Rostock , was also needed.

The Rostock City Hall was opened in 1979 as a sports and congress hall. In 2006 the StadtHalle was extensively renovated. The outer walls were given new colors, the technical systems in the hall were modernized and new cooling and ventilation systems were installed. Today, numerous concerts, conferences, events and some of the home games of HC Empor Rostock and the basketball players of the Rostock Seawolves , but also party conferences (e.g. the federal party conference of the FDP , Die Linke and B90 / Greens ) take place in the hall.

The StadtHalle is to be renovated and expanded from April 2017 to April 2018 for around 16.5 million euros. The state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania will contribute a maximum of 15 million euros . The rest is covered by own funds. Hall 1 is to be extended by five meters in the north. With an additional grandstand, the capacity increases to 6629 spectators. The foyer is to be expanded by 2000 square meters up to the current external staircase. The new entrances will also be able to offer barrier-free access. From October 2017 Empor Rostock should be able to use the hall again.

Additional seats for spectators can be created by arranging the seats in the interior and by expanding the tiers with two grandstands on each side.
