Messe Magdeburg

Messe Magdeburg is the exhibition centre of the state capital Magdeburg, Saxony-Anhalt. It is operated by Messe- und Veranstaltungsgesellschaft Magdeburg GmbH . With an area of 12,000 m², it is the largest exhibition centre in the region.
In Magdeburg, trade fair events can be traced back to the beginnings of the city. They took place on the small trading area at the ford. Due to industrialization, the city grew and a supra-regional communication center was needed. By 1922, a trade fair and exhibition centre had been built on the grounds of Rotehorn Island. The most successful exhibition was the International Theatre Exhibition in 1927, for which the ensemble of the Stadthalle Magdeburg and the observation tower were created. However, the destruction in the Second World War largely destroyed the site.
