The hall was built in 1911-1913 in the previous horse racing area, during preparations for an exhibition commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Leipzig. The cupola was made of reinforced concrete and with an inner diameter of 69 m and 42 m high; it was the largest building of its kind at the time of construction.
