Ballenstedt Palace Theatre, Palace theatre at Schloss Ballenstedt, Germany

The theatre building stands at the end of the castle avenue, connecting the town with Schloss Ballenstedt through a tree-lined promenade.

The theatre opened its doors on June 8, 1788, following Princess Pauline's initiative to establish a society theatre within the castle grounds.

Traveling theater companies, including Josef Seconda and Friedrich Wilhelm Bossann groups, performed operas, concerts, and plays during winter seasons.

The venue maintains an active program of performances, with events scheduled throughout the year, including musical shows and traditional celebrations.

Albert Lortzing conducted his opera Undine here in 1847, while Franz Liszt directed the third Anhalt Music Festival in 1852.
