The concert hall in Raiding, Austria, was built by Atelier Kempe Thill in a beautiful park directly opposite the house where Franz Liszt was born. The structure contains a chamber music hall for 600 visitors which is 12 meters high and features a balcony on the second floor. The proportions and dimensions of this chamber music hall are set up according to references from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, resembling halls in which Liszt played himself. The inside of the hall is entirely constructed from wood. The façade of the building is made of polyurethane and windows of monolithic acrylic plates measuring 18 by 4 meters.
