Jahn Sports Hall in Lipp­stadt

New oppor­tu­ni­ties

The Jahn­platz in Lipp­stadt is the sporting center of the city, so the new Jahn­sport­halle creates new oppor­tu­ni­ties here.

The cons­truc­tion of the new three-field sports hall adds another attrac­tive element to the sporting centre of the city.

The new Jahn Sports Hall in Lipp­stadt, Germany, enhances the sporting centre of the city and harmo­nises perfectly with its surroun­dings. The joint project between the Evan­ge­lical Church and the city of Lipp­stadt offers more oppor­tu­ni­ties for schools and asso­cia­tions.

The Jahn­platz in Lipp­stadt (North Rhine-West­phalia) is a para­dise for sports enthu­si­asts. It offers not only the oppor­tu­nity to play foot­ball or burn off energy on the running track but also ample scope for indi­vi­dual sports. For example, the dirt park for moun­tain bikers, the skate­park or the large exer­cise park.

The cons­truc­tion of the new three-field sports hall adds another attrac­tive element to the sporting centre of the city. Eling archi­tekten of Lipp­stadt have created a modern 2,450 m² three-field hall on behalf of the city and the Evan­ge­lical Church of West­phalia, which harmo­nises perfectly with the local surroun­dings.

The exis­ting retai­ning wall borde­ring on Jahn­platz was skilfully inte­grated into the design, offe­ring visi­tors as a place to sit and watch the world go by.

Located in the imme­diate vici­nity of the secon­dary school and the Jahn­platz, the light-flooded white hall rests on a brick base.

The exis­ting retai­ning wall borde­ring on Jahn­platz was skilfully inte­grated into the design, offe­ring visi­tors as a place to sit and watch the world go by.

Here visi­tors will also find the entrance, with long concrete stairs leading into the foyer, which is flooded with light thanks to the large windows. There is also a ramp leading into the new buil­ding.

Acou­stic ceiling panels enhance the wood-and-concrete aesthetic.

Inside Jahn Sports Hall, a large grand­stand offers space for about 600 people, and there are several multi-purpose rooms, which can be used for the theory lessons taught along­side the sports classes, as well as chan­ging rooms.
Light concrete elements are combined with light wood elements, making the entire hall, which also includes a clim­bing wall, bright and invi­ting. In keeping with this design, acou­stic panels in a natural wood tone were installed on the ceiling.
Since its inau­gu­ra­tion in October 2021, the Jahn Sports Hall has enjoyed great popu­la­rity not only among students but also among clubs.
