Kornspeicher hosts seminars, company parties, weddings and family celebrations for 30 to 300 guests in Hüls, a district of Krefeld in Germany. The venue occupies a restored historic Vierkanthof, a traditional farm built around a closed courtyard, at Mühlenweg 55. It offers two large halls, a small lounge, a roof terrace and an outdoor area.
Seminars and company events
The venue lists conferences, meetings, seminars, workshops and presentations among the business events it organizes, along with company parties. The team runs them according to the client's wishes rather than from a fixed package, so the format of the day is agreed with the organizer. Service, drinks and food are provided by the venue.
The basic equipment covers Wi-Fi, a projector, a flipchart, a pinboard, a whiteboard and a facilitator case. That is enough for a workshop or a presentation without bringing your own material. If your program needs more technical gear, such as sound or staging, raise it at the first enquiry, because the website does not list anything beyond the basics.
The same rooms also serve for courses and cultural events. The venue says its spaces can be arranged in different ways, so a seminar layout, a plenary setup and a party layout are all realistic. The site does not give seating plans per room, so state the layout you need when you ask.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are a regular use of the site. The venue says it can organize them in a very classic style or in an entirely unconventional one, and that the team carries out the couple's wishes creatively. The wedding photographs on the website show the entrance gate on Krüserstraße and the inner courtyard, which gives an idea of the setting for arrivals and photos.
The venue also hosts birthdays, parties and family celebrations. Depending on the occasion and the budget, it proposes a buffet, a set menu or a barbecue, a DJ or live music, and beer or cocktails.
Rooms and capacities
The venue states one overall range: 30 to 300 people across its spaces. These are:
Two large halls with plenty of daylight. A small lounge. A generous roof terrace. An outdoor area laid out with care.
The website gives no room names and no capacity per hall, so say how many guests you expect and whether you want one hall, both halls or the whole site. Small groups of around 30 are within the stated range, which makes the venue workable for a workshop day as well as for a large party.
Catering
Food, drinks and service come from the venue's own team. For private parties the site mentions buffet, set menu and barbecue formats. In the beer garden, the venue serves its own beer, Hülser Helles, from the Steveshof. The website does not describe a business catering menu, so ask for a proposal that fits a seminar day, with coffee breaks and lunch.
History and setting
Kornspeicher stands on a lovingly restored historic Vierkanthof. The venue also runs a beer garden in season. In good weather it opens on Fridays and Saturdays from 5 p.m. and on Sundays from 3 p.m., and it holds live music and other events there. Opening days can change, so check current dates before you plan a visit.
Getting there
The address is Mühlenweg 55, 47839 Krefeld, in the Hüls district. The venue is best reached by email for enquiries, and the website also lists a phone number and a messaging number for quick questions.
