The Centennial Hall (German: Jahrhunderthalle, Polish: Hala Stulecia (formerly Hala Ludowa - People's Hall)) is a historic building in Wrocław, Poland. It was constructed according to the plans of architect Max Berg in 1911–1913, when the city was part of the German Empire. As an early landmark of reinforced concrete architecture, it was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2006.

The building is frequently visited by tourists and the local populace. It lies close to other popular tourist attractions, such as the Wrocław Zoo, the Japanese Garden, and the Pergola with its Multimedia Fountain.

Wrocław ([ˈvrɔt​͡swaf] ( listen); German: Breslau ( listen); Czech: Vratislav), situated on the River Oder (Polish: Odra), is the main city of southwestern Poland.

Wrocław is the historical capital of Silesia and today is the capital of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship. Over the centuries, the city has been part of either Poland, Bohemia, Austria, Prussia, or Germany, but since 1945 it has become again part of Poland as a result of post-World War Two border changes. According to official population figures for 2010, its population is 632,996, making it the fourth largest city in Poland.

Wrocław has been selected as a European Capital of Culture for 2016. It will share the title with San Sebastián, Spain.
