Tabourettli Theatre

Basel

IN SHORT

Located in the center of the old town, the 'Spalenhof' is one of Basel's most important buildings. Dating from the 13th century, it was converted into a merchant's home in the 15th and 16th centuries and was sold to the city in 1956. New apartments were planned as part of a program to upgrade the district as a residential area. In 1984, a preliminary investigation into the building's condition revealed that the Kaisersaal's roof structure at 12 x 12 meters was too huge by medieval standards, along with its massive, timber post-and-beam system and a painted cassette ceiling.
