The grandest building in Norderney town, the Conversationshaus is a handsome 19th-century assembly hall that served as the social centre of the island's resort life for over a century. Today it hosts concerts, theatre performances, exhibitions, and events throughout the year — it is worth checking the programme before your visit.
The building sits on the main promenade behind the beach and is hard to miss. The interior retains its period character, with a concert hall and smaller salons. Even if you don't catch a performance, the exterior and setting give a good sense of what Norderney looked like at its elegant resort peak.
