Henry-Ford-Bau, Freie Universität Berlin

Garystraße 35, 14195 Berlin, Germany

The Henry Ford Building at the Free University of Berlin is a versatile conference and convention center in the Dahlem district of Berlin. The listed building combines striking architecture with event spaces of varying sizes and is suitable for congresses, scientific conferences, seminars, workshops, corporate events, press conferences, and public information events.

For larger events, the Max Kade Auditorium and several lecture halls with capacities of approximately 226 to 350 seats are available. The Audimax can accommodate around 1,200 guests. In addition, there are several conference rooms for smaller meetings, working groups, and discussions with up to nearly 30 people. Two spacious foyers, a gallery, and the plaza on Boltzmannstrasse can be used for receptions, catering, exhibitions, trade fair booths, and other event areas.

The premises can be rented in their entirety or in individual sections and offer event spaces for approximately 10 to 2,000 participants. Technical equipment includes sound systems, projection screens, displays, microphones, video conferencing solutions, interpreting equipment, and recording or broadcast capabilities. Lighting and room functions can also be centrally controlled. The dedicated event team provides support in the preparation and technical execution of events.

The Henry Ford Building is particularly well-suited for organizers seeking a combination of university atmosphere, flexible room sizes, and professional conference technology. Its excellent transport links in southwest Berlin and the various room configurations make it an attractive venue for one-day conferences, multi-day congresses, and larger special events.
