Senate Hall

The Senate Hall was the name givne to the building that housed the Galactic Senate on Coruscant during the time of the Old Sith Wars.

The Hall's interior resembled an oval stadium, and it was estimated that perhaps as many as 50,000 senators could seat there comfortably.

In 3,996 BBY, during the trial of Ulic Qel-Droma, the Sith Lord Exar Kun entered the Hall, placing the assembled senators and Supreme Chancellor under his control as he battled Jedi to free his apprentice.

At some point following the wars, possibly due to damage sustained during one of the Sith attacks on Coruscant, the Hall was replaced with the smaller Senate Building.
