Stadthaus Guided Tours
Stadthaus Guided Tours
The Stadthaus was designed by world-renowned and award-winning (e.g. the Pritzker Architecture Award in 1984) US-American architect Richard Meier.
The Stadthaus is often called the 'little sister' of the famous Getty Center in Los Angeles, which was also designed by Richard Meier and opened its doors to the public in 1997.
In the guided tours, you will learn a lot about the unusual architecture, the special way in which Richard Meier reacts to the surroundings and much more.
Stadthaus Special Tours with Strawberry Punch
2. July 2020, 18 p.m. with Karla Nieraad
The Stadthaus is now 25 years old. Countless personalities have visited the building, Federal Presidents and Federal Chancellors as well as world renowned artists and 'underdogs'. Stadthaus director Karla Nieraad has met most of them and has a few stories to tell. Which is why the guided tours with Karla Nieraad have become the most popular tours of the building. Her tours of the Meier building focus on the US-American architect's spectacular vantage points and architecture. This alone is very exciting, as you get to know how extensively Meier analysed the immediate surroundings and the Ulm minster when he developed his designs.

Was man sonst nicht zu sehen bekommt: Die technischen Betriebsräume des Stadthauses
Führung mit dem Technischen Leiter Paul Stauber
Paul Stauber zeigt bei seinem Gang durch die "Katakomben" des Stadthauses Bereiche, die unsere Besucher:innen sonst nicht zu sehen bekommen. Es geht um Kältemaschinen, die seit über 25 Jahren zuverlässig dafür sorgen, dass es auch an heißen Tagen angenehm temperiert ist im Haus, um die Bedeutung des Stadthauses für Veranstaltungen auf dem Münsterplatz, um den Sinn von Fettabscheidern und vieles mehr: Technik im Verborgenen, unverzichtbar!
Einen Vorgeschmack auf diese spezielle Führung können Sie in unserem rund 20-minütigen Film bekommen.
Doch so schön dieser Film auch ist - live ist live. Und noch viel spannender. Termine für diese Führung durch die technischen Betriebsräume des Stadthauses können individuell vereinbart werden.
