Rheinhallen in Cologne

Rheinhallen, Cologne

In 1922 the former mayor of Cologne, Konrad Adenauer, had already laid the foundations for the Rheinhallen with the initiation of the Cologne Trade Fair Company. The complex of buildings, protected as a historic monument, directly next to the banks of the Rhine in the Deutz district of Cologne was a trade fair venue from 1924 to 2005. Despite numerous refurbishments and modernizations, especially after World War II, the uniform brick building of 1928 can still be recognized, having dominated the panorama of the right bank of the Rhine for decades.

In 2005 the Rheinhallen was handed over to the City of Cologne. For the new main tenant, the media group RTL, including TV networks RTL, VOX, Super RTL and the news network n-tv, the interior of the original halls was completely stripped out. Two four-story buildings were inserted into the existing facades as part of the conversion. The Condair ESCO pressurized steam distribution system guarantees hygienic humidification of the highest standard.
