The conference dinner will be held at the Alte Reithalle in Stuttgart and is a notable monument of 19th-century iron architecture. Built in 1887 – 88 it reflects the Neo-Renaissance style and advanced construction methods of its time. It was designed by architect Robert von Reinhardt as a versatile multi-purpose hall. A remarkable feature is the oval riding arena with a widespanning roof constructed from iron trusses, the supports intentionally left exposed to emphasize the material. Its outstanding interior features include two impressive chandeliers, each measuring 6.50 m in diameter and weighing 672 kg. During World War II it suffered significant damage and was later rebuilt in a somewhat simplified form. From its origins as a space for equestrian displays, the Alte Reithalle has evolved into a premium venue combining historical character with modern event functionality within the Maritim Hotel complex. With its distinctive iron-and-glass construction and adaptive reuse, the hall exemplifies Stuttgart’s industrial-era architectural heritage.
We encourage you to seize this opportunity to be part of this hopefully unforgettable evening and secure your place for the conference dinner together with the registration.
