Putbus Theatre

Putbus Theatre is a classical theatre building with white walls and elegant columns that rises from the market square. The interior holds several hundred seats and features historical furnishings and stage facilities.

A prince commissioned this theatre in the 1820s to reinforce the cultural importance of his town. The building survived the decades and underwent fundamental renovation at the end of the 20th century.

The theatre functions as a cultural hub for the region, drawing audiences for diverse performances throughout the year. It shapes the cultural rhythm of daily life in this small town.

The theatre sits centrally at the market square and is easy to reach on foot. Visitors should check the programme before arriving, as offerings change with the seasons.

The building was internally modernized without altering its protected classical exterior, which contrasts with many other historical theatres that lost their original appearance. This means visitors see a 200-year-old facade but experience contemporary facilities inside.
