Besides its reputation throughout the world as a spa resort, the exceptional ambience of the town of Bad Kissingen, with its magnificant parks, historical buildings and a world-class cultural offering, is equally as fascinating.

The Regentenbau is the last of the spa complex buildings finished according to the plans of Prince Regent Luitpold, and was dedicated in May of 1913. Following its renovation, the Regentenbau - as cultural hub - is amongst the most magnificent halls in all of Europe.

THE MAX LITTMANN HALL

The Max Littmann Hall, designed as a concert hall, is today the representative meeting point for art and culture. The walls, the grand balcony on three sides and the columns of the 36 metre long and 16 metre high hall are clad with cherry wood and decorated with ebony inlays. The wooden panelling serves to provide perfect acoustics. The Max Littmann Hall, with its magnificent ambience and outstanding acoustics, represents the ideal framework for concerts and recording for CD.

THE ARCADE PASSAGE

King Ludwig I of Bavaria commissioned Friedrich von Gärtner to design the 200 meter long arcade passage, built in the years 1834 to 1838.

THE ORNAMENTAL COURTYARD

Professor Max Littmann, the architect of the Regentenbau and Europe's largest foyer, was accorded greatest recognition for his "master stroke of spatial art".
