Klaus Remer Foyer
ground floor and basement
The bright Klaus Remer Foyer is the perfect space for art exhibitions, but is also frequently used for smaller receptions or catering events. Exhibitions from the Kunst im CPH series have been held here regularly since 2004. The historic walls form an exciting contrast to the large glass front facing the street.
The foyer adjoins the concert hall and is connected to it by doors. Organizers can therefore also use the Klaus Remer Foyer for cultural events and galas in the concert hall.

Klaus Remer (1939-2016)
Born and raised in Hanau, Klaus Remer studied to become a teacher at the universities of Frankfurt am Main and Berlin after graduating from the Hohe Landesschule. After completing his studies, he returned to his home town and was initially a secondary school teacher from 1967 to 1985, before becoming a senior teacher at the Karl Rehbein School in Hanau. His involvement in local politics began in 1964 when he became a member of the city council for the SPD. He was a member of the parliamentary group until 1985, from 1968 as group chairman. In December 2000, Remer joined the Bürger für Hanau – BfH (Citizens for Hanau) electoral association, of which he was a member until his death.
Klaus Remer has shaped culture in Hanau for more than 30 years. As the first independent full-time head of cultural affairs in the city of the Brothers Grimm, he initiated a rich offering of theater and concerts.
