Africa Hall

Africa Hall serves as the headquarters for the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Completed in 1961, this architectural marvel spans 75,000 m2 and features a unique internal layout with continuous spaces. The building not only symbolizes Ethiopia's ambition to showcase grand structures using local materials but also hosts significant historical events, including the founding of the Organization of African Unity in 1963. Visitors can admire Afewerk Tekle's stunning stained glass work, 'Total Liberation of Africa,' which represents unity among African nations. The adjacent United Nations Conference Centre offers extensive facilities for international conferences, making Africa Hall a vital hub for diplomacy and development in Africa.
