The amphitheater on Lake Miedwie was built according to a very bold design. The entire structure of the facility is covered with a roof in the shape of a large sail that bends in the wind. The architects partially submerged the facility in the waters of Lake Miedwie. The facility is friendly to disabled people and there is space for wheelchairs between the rows of the audience. Up to 800 people can watch concerts in the shell.
