Carl-Maria-von-Weber-Theater

The Carl-Maria-von-Weber-Theater is a classical theatre building in Bernburg with a spacious entrance hall and multiple performance spaces for different art forms. The interior combines historical architectural elements with modern stage equipment and comfortable seating.

Architect Johann Philipp August Bunge designed this theatre building, which opened in January 1827. The opening marked a peak in classical theatre culture for the Anhalt region.

The theatre is named after Carl Maria von Weber, a composer whose works are regularly performed here. The name reflects this venue's connection to the region's classical music heritage.

The building provides complete wheelchair accessibility, including elevators and accessible restrooms for all visitors. The experience is supported by modern technical facilities and well-equipped audience areas.

The theatre is one of the few remaining original theatre buildings from the historic Anhalt region and has served its original function for almost 200 years. This continuous use as a performance venue makes it a living record of the city's cultural history.
