Schauspielhaus Bad Godesberg, Theatre and architectural monument in Alt-Godesberg, Germany
The Schauspielhaus Bad Godesberg is a theatre building featuring modern architecture distinguished by a flat-roofed design and narrow window openings. The structure houses an auditorium with approximately 470 seats and was designed with clear geometric forms.
The theatre was built in 1952 and was the first new theatrical venue constructed in West Germany following World War II. Its completion in just eight months marked a cultural fresh start in the post-war period.
The venue serves as a hub for theatrical performances in the region, hosting both local and guest productions that shape the cultural life of the city. Visitors experience a diverse range of dramatic works staged throughout the year.
The venue is easily accessible and visitors can purchase tickets both online and at the box office located in the foyer. The entrance area in its original condition helps with orientation and preserves the feel of the opening era.
The building received protected status in 2008 to preserve its exterior structure, which represents post-war architectural design principles. This designation recognizes the construction style as an important example of early post-war modernism.
