Stadttheater Passau, Heritage theatre in Passau, Germany.
Stadttheater Passau is a performance venue for theatre, opera, and orchestral shows, featuring classical architectural elements across its facade. The building sits in central Passau on Gottfried-Schäffer-Straße and provides space for a range of productions.
The building started in 1774 as a sports hall for ball games before being converted into a theatre for the Prince Bishop of Passau. This transformation marked a shift in the building's purpose to a cultural venue.
The theatre hosts multiple artistic groups that perform drama, opera, and orchestral music. These productions shape the cultural life of the city and create gathering spaces for people across the region.
The theatre is easily reached through its main entrance on Gottfried-Schäffer-Straße in a central location within the city. The venue maintains regular office hours for ticket sales and visitor information.
The theatre works not only as a standalone venue but also sends productions to partner cities throughout the region. This collaboration extends cultural access beyond Passau itself.
