National Theatre of Győr

The National Theatre of Győr is a theatre building and company with a main auditorium seating 663 people and a smaller hall with 120 seats. These spaces host musicals, operas, operettas, dramatic plays, comedies, and tragicomedies through separate departments.

The current building was constructed between 1973 and 1978, replacing an earlier theatre that had operated in a converted dairy building since 1937. This new structure represented a major investment when the city decided to build a dedicated modern theatre space.

The venue hosts a range of performances from operas to plays, serving as a regular gathering place for the local theatre community. The mix of productions shows how audiences in this city value both classical and contemporary forms of performance.

The theatre is located at Czuczor Gergely street 7 and can be found without difficulty from the main street. Following major renovations in 2009, the interior was updated with improved seating areas, better circulation spaces, and modern technical systems.

The building's exterior is decorated with Greek marble slabs and distinctive ceramic artworks by artist Victor Vasarely. These artistic elements make the theatre visually distinctive among Hungarian theatre buildings.
