Landestheater Detmold, Opera house and theatre in Detmold, Germany

The Landestheater Detmold is an opera house and theater venue in Detmold presenting opera, ballet, musicals, and dramatic productions. The main hall accommodates around 650 guests and offers performances throughout the year.

The original theater burned down in 1912 and architect Bodo Ebhardt designed a replacement. The new building was constructed between 1914 and 1918 with support from local residents.

The theater serves not only the city but also sends its productions to surrounding regions without their own performance venues. Performances reach audiences across North Rhine-Westphalia and beyond.

Visitors can attend performances throughout the year at this venue. It is helpful to check ahead for scheduling and planning a visit.

The Fürstlich-Lippische-Hofkapelle, founded in 1834, continues to serve as the resident orchestra for productions. This ensemble brings a lengthy musical tradition to the theater's performances.
