Gasteig is a cultural center in Munich, opened in 1985, which hosts the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra. The Richard Strauss Conservatory, the Volkshochschule, and the municipal library are all located in the Gasteig. Most of the events of the Filmfest München take place here.
Halls and seats
- Philharmonie, 2387 seats, with a Klais Organ
- Carl-Orff-Saal, 528-598 seats
- Black Box, 120-225 seats
- Kleiner Konzertsaal (small concert hall), 191 seats
The Philharmonic Hall, opening like a great wood-panelled seashell, has an intimate atmosphere and excellent acoustic qualities.[1] The smaller hall "Kleiner Konzertsaal" offers the same qualities for chamber music. The Gasteig comprises the Carl Orff Hall with a stage for drama, the Richard Strauss Conservatory, the Black Box studio theatre, the Münchner Volkshochschule (Adult Education Centre) for further education, various cafés and shops, e.g. the 'Pappnase' (cardboard nose) offering a selection of dramatic requisites, and the central branch of the Municipal Library with its extensive stock of books and periodicals.
History of the site
The estate behind the Gasteig was until its demolition in 1979 the location of the Bürgerbräukeller, stage for the 1923 Beer Hall Putsch and the 1939 Hitler assassination attempt by Georg Elser. A showcase visible from outside of the Gasteig commemorates Elsers history.
