A place for special occasions: The Festival Hall Baden-Baden
The Festival Hall in Baden-Baden, Germany's largest opera house, is one of the world's leading venues for classical music. Its architecture and music breathe the spirit of great composers such as Johannes Brahms, Clara Schumann and Richard Wagner. The historical façade of the former railway station leads into a modern concert hall with one of the best acoustics in the world. The service provided by the house is tailored to the individual wishes of its guests, while the sophisticated gastronomy is inspired by top chef Harald Wohlfahrt.
The Festival Hall not only offers a stage for the world's best musicians, but is also an atmospheric alternative to the usual conference centres and hotels.
