Cité de la musique et de la danse de Strasbourg

Cité de la Musique et de la Danse de Strasbourg is an educational and performance center with six levels containing music classrooms, dance studios, and rehearsal spaces organized around two interior courtyards. The main auditorium seats 500 people and serves as the primary performance venue for the facility.

The building was designed by architect Henri Gaudin and opened in May 2006 as an educational and performance complex. Its creation marked a new era in Strasbourg's approach to providing dedicated facilities for artistic education and public performances.

This venue serves as a gathering place where music and dance coexist as equals, with regular performances by students and visiting artists that blend different artistic traditions. The programming reflects both classical training and contemporary interpretations, creating a space where formal education meets public artistic expression.

The venue is located near the Étoile Bourse transit station and provides a parking garage with 50 spaces for visitors. A restaurant is available within the building, making it convenient for those planning to spend more time here.

The facility includes a dedicated organ room seating 50 people, which houses a custom instrument built by Manufacture Mulheisen. This intimate space serves both as a performance venue and teaching space, operating as a quiet retreat within the larger complex.
