The Stadthaus Ulm is an assembly hall and art exhibition centre in the city centre of Ulm (Germany).As an international landmark of modern architecture it is a building that encourages encounters with art, people, and culture. At the foot of the famous Ulm Minster, forming both a contrast and a complement to this dominating late-Gothic building, the Stadthaus and Münsterplatz (minster square) were designed by the renowned US architect Richard Meier.HistoryFor centuries a monastery stood in the square of today’s Stadthaus which was also used as latinschool. It was finally dismantled in 1878 - shortly before completion of the cathedral - in order to give a free view on the worlds highest spire. Thenceforth the design of Ulm’s cathedral square has been subject of heated argument for 105 years and there are records of 17 design competitions, expert opinions and design submissions.It wasn’t until 1986 when Richard Meier’s design was chosen and construction work began in 1991. The decision provoked discussion and hearings throughout the whole city, but in 1987 the population voted in favour of the construction in a referendum. Construction was finished in 1993 and the Stadthaus opened its gates to the public. The project was completed by the design of the cathedral square. Some people were still sceptical about the architecture because they felt it wouldn't comply with that of the cathedral.Today the Stadthaus forms the centre of a redevelopment of Ulm’s city centre.ArchitectureThe Stadthaus is experienced as one large space on different interrelated levels with a total area of 3,600 m². The open staircase connects all four levels and provides open and framed views to the interior spaces and the exterior beyond.
