Bonn's tradition as a theater city goes back to the time of the electors. In 1826, the art-loving citizens built their own first theater.
In 1965, the new Bonn Theater building was inaugurated on the banks of the Rhine. Today, its 1037-seat main theater is used almost exclusively by the opera and also provides a stage for international dance guest performances.
Schauspiel Bonn has its own theater in Bad Godesberg as well as another venue in the Werkstattbühne in the opera house.
