Rostock University of Music and Theatre

In 1947, a University of Music, Theatre and Dance was inaugurated in Rostock under the direction of the composer Rudolf Wagner-Régeny.

By the turn of 1990/91, the college became the Academy of Dramatic Art of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, a German federal state, and was temporarily continued as the drama department of the University of Rostock.

The University of Music and Drama in Rostock was legally established by the government of Mecklenburg-West Pomerania on January 1, 1994.

Today, the Rostock University of Music and Drama is a favourite choice among students throughout Europe.

Since its move in 2001 into the beautifully restored Katharinenstift, made by architect Jons Reimann, the University of Music and Theatre has become a noticed venue for concerts, plays and events.
