Theater Regensburg

[1] That theatre was designed by Emanuel Herigoyen and destroyed by a fire in 1849.

The theatre was rebuilt under a new design, also by Herigoyen, and opened in 1852 with a performance of Meyerbeer's Die Hugenotten.

That theatre, now known as the Theater am Bismarckplatz, remains Regensburg's principal venue for operas and operettas.

It is also occasionally used for ballets, musicals, plays, and orchestral concerts; however, the Velodrom (originally built in 1897 as a Radsporthalle, now room for 620 spectators) is the main stage for those kinds of productions.

More experimental works are often presented at the Turmtheater, a smaller venue with 88 seats.
