Architecture, history, and atmosphere to touch
The music forum was opened at the end of October 2016 after around 15 years of planning and construction and has since shaped Bochum's city center as a house of music. Particularly appealing is the combination of modern concert architecture and historical substance: The building stands in the context of the repurposed Marienkirche and makes cultural history immediately experienceable in the urban space.
