Stadsschouwburg, Concert hall and historic theatre in Bruges, Belgium
The Stadsschouwburg features a neo-Renaissance facade with a grand foyer and an auditorium decorated in red and gold color schemes throughout the interior spaces.
The construction in 1869 required demolishing 46 medieval buildings and displacing 150 residents to create space for the new theatre and surrounding square.
This municipal theatre hosts numerous events ranging from contemporary dance performances to theatrical productions and concerts by both international and local artists.
The venue maintains accessibility features including adapted toilets and elevators, with convenient parking available at the nearby Centrum-'t Zand facility.
The establishment of this theatre marked a significant urban transformation in Bruges, leading to the straightening of streets to create a dedicated theatre square.
