Haus Ungarn is a 1,000 m² event space in Berlin Mitte that hosts conferences, workshops, receptions and galas for 50 to 800 people across eight areas. It stands at Karl-Liebknecht-Straße 9, near the TV tower, and combines a foyer, a cinema hall, a divisible gallery, a terrace and a workspace.
Seminars and company events
The venue works for business formats of very different sizes. The gallery is the main meeting space. It covers 216 m² when open and holds up to 108 people in parliament seating or 300 in rows. Rolling partition walls and separate entrances split it into up to three rooms of about 70 m², each usable as a break-out room or workshop room. Ceilings are 4.5 m high, the room is air-conditioned, and curtains darken it at the push of a button. The cinema is the plenary hall: 141 m², 180 seats in rows, with a fixed stage, an automatic stage curtain and modern light, sound and presentation technology. A small workspace of 44 m² is set apart from the other rooms for focused meetings or use as a back office.
Rooms and capacities
The foyer is the largest area at 478 m². It takes 600 guests for a reception and 260 for a seated banquet according to the layout table (the facts panel states 320 for banquets). A six-meter folding window front opens it onto the terrace. A rustic stone bar anchors the lounge area, and LED panels on walls and ceilings change the look of the room.
The cinema holds 250 for a reception, 120 at banquet tables and 56 in parliament seating. The workspace holds 50 for a reception, 40 at banquet tables, 18 in parliament seating and 35 in rows. The terrace is 97 m², of which 50 m² is covered, and takes up to 200 guests for a reception. The open gallery takes 350 for a reception, 250 at banquet tables and 180 for a gala.
The site publishes a layout plan, a technical rider, a catering document and a table of seating variants (reception, gala, banquet, U-shape, parliament and rows) for each room.
Catering
The venue provides a catering document for organisers. The site does not name an in-house kitchen or caterers, so confirm the model when you send your request. On sunny days the terrace can host a welcome drink and a live barbecue.
History and setting
Haus Ungarn was the Hungarian cultural center of East Berlin before 1989. The current space keeps restored elements from that period, such as the herringbone parquet and wood paneling of the cinema, and pairs them with modern LED lighting and sound. From the lounge and terrace, guests see the TV tower, St. Mary's Church and the Red City Hall.
Getting there
The address is Karl-Liebknecht-Straße 9, 10178 Berlin, in the central district close to Alexanderplatz. Requests go through the booking form on the venue's website, which asks for the type of event, preferred and alternative dates, start time, duration and approximate guest count. The operator can also be reached by phone and email.
