Akademietheater, Historic theatre in Landstraße, Vienna, Austria.
The Akademietheater is a theatre building in Vienna's Landstraße district with classical architecture and seating for about 500 people. The hall sits near Schwarzenbergplatz and includes wheelchair accessible spaces for visitors.
The building was designed and constructed between 1911 and 1913 by architects Fellner, Helmer, and Ludwig Baumann. In 1922 the Burgtheater took over the venue and has used it as a second stage since then.
The theatre hosts German-language performances and operates as an additional stage for the Burgtheater company. It functions as a key venue where Vienna's theatre community continues its dramatic traditions.
The box office opens about one hour before performances, giving you time to arrive without rush. The U4 subway stops at Stadtpark and tram D stops at Schwarzenbergplatz, both very close to the building.
The stage has generous wing spaces and storage areas that allow for technically complex productions. This setup lets the theater stage ambitious shows that require sophisticated equipment and scenery.
