The construction of the Laeiszhalle was made possible through a will donation from the Hamburg shipowner Carl Heinrich Laeisz and his wife.
The imposing building from 1908 is one of the most beautiful concert halls in northern Germany. Based on the city's baroque brick architecture, the building, initially called Laeiszhalle, is an elaborate example of Hamburg's neo-baroque style. With the Laeiszhalle, Hamburg has a representative venue for musical performances of all genres.
The Great Hall, which is equipped with a mighty Beckerath organ, has a good 2,000 seats and the Small Hall has around 640 seats. Marble monuments honor the composers Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) and Peter Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) as well as Clara Schumann (1819-1896) in the Wandelsaal (Brahms Foyer) of the first tier.
The Laeiszhalle survived the Second World War unscathed and for decades thereafter was simply called the Musikhalle Hamburg. In 1983 it was thoroughly renovated and in 2006 it was given back its original name at a celebratory event. The Johannes-Brahms-Platz in front of the Laeiszhalle was only given this name in 1997 on the 100th anniversary of Johannes Brahms' death. In 1934, the former Holstenplatz (at what was then the Holstentor) was renamed for the first time: in the name of the then chief conductor of the Hamburg Philharmonic, Karl Muck.

Inside, the Laeiszhalle is a gem with its own flair. Be sure to visit a classical concert! I think the concert hall has more soul and charm than the Elbphilharmonie. Tickets are also easier to get hold of than the latter. (If there is no lock down ...)

The Laeiszhalle is a traditional concert hall on Johannes-Brahms-Platz and was built in a neo-baroque style. Large hall 2025 seats, small hall 640 seats. The music hall was built from 1904 to 1908 under the direction of architects Martin Haller and Emil Meerwein. The project was financed by the Hamburg shipping company Carl Laeisz. The international stars of the music world are still guests here today. The Great Hall is one of the best philharmonic concert halls in Europe. The Hamburg Symphony Orchestra is at home here, as are many other Hamburg orchestras and choirs. In the past, the 12-year-old "miracle violinist" gave Yehudi Menuhin and Maria Callas' legendary concerts.
