The auditorium of the University of Mauritius was named in the honor of Paul Octave Wiehe, the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Mauritius from 1968 to 1973
The Paul Octave Wiéhé Auditorium is found at the heart of the Country amidst a green panoramic scenery and is one of our oldest auditoriums in Mauritius.
It was built by the Government of Mauritius after Independence with financial support from the Government of India and is primarily used for educational, theatrical, social and cultural activities by the students of the University.
The Auditorium has hosted several high-profile cultural events of international standard as well as historical events to mark specific celebrations, like the birth of Mahatma Gandhi.
