FOOTBALL GOAL BECOMES A STAGE NEUTAL HALL FOR SPORT AND CULTURE The hall for sport and culture in the municipality of Neutal resulted from a process in which the mayor and the municipal administration consulted with the population to define actual demand, requirements and wishes for the new community building. On the basis of these precisely defined parameters, a compact, functional and iconic building has been developed that satisfies all of these requirements as well as responding to local conditions. On a 23 x 37 m footprint, the playing and multi-purpose area based on a standard sports hall forms the centrepiece of the building. The concourse area positioned along one side serves as
an audience space for small sports events, served by all the necessary ancillary areas such as food & drink and sanitary facilities, but also with direct access from the main entrance and forecourt. sb 1/2022
