Located in the heart of City West, just a few steps from Kurfürstendamm, the Ludwig-Erhard-Haus of the Berlin Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IHK) offers one of the capital’s most striking convention and congress locations. 

Designed by British architect Nicolas Grimshaw and affectionately known as the “Armadillo” due to its shape, the building combines spectacular architecture with state-of-the-art infrastructure for business events of all kinds.

Whether it is a conference, congress, meeting, or workshop – the venue provides prestigious rooms and spacious areas for small groups or events with up to 1,600 people
