In 1845 the New University Assembly Hall was officially opened and dedicated as the center of the new University Quarter. At the beginning of the 19th century, the university buildings in the old city were no longer able to contain the expanding university.

The magnificent classical New University Hall has three stories, a large ballroom, and 14 lecture halls. The two fountains were given to the university by the city in 1877 as a gift for its 400th birthday. The fountains were removed in 1931 in order to use the square in front of the assembly hall for National Socialist rallies. An artistic foundry in Süßen cast the fountains anew and in 1999 they were again installed in their original location, now called the Scholl-Sibling-Square, named after the famous siblings who were members of the White Rose resistance movement.
