Teatro Comunale dei Rinnovati, Baroque theatre in Palazzo Pubblico, Siena, Italy.
The Teatro dei Rinnovati occupies a section of the Palazzo Pubblico, featuring four levels of boxes arranged in a U-shape configuration around the main stage.
Originally built as a council chamber in the 14th century, the space was converted into a theatre in 1560 during Grand Duke Cosimo I de Medici's visit.
The theatre hosts the annual Settimana Musicale Chigiana festival in August, presenting classical music performances by international artists.
The venue contains 549 seats distributed across multiple levels, with access through the Cortile del Podesta entrance from Piazza del Campo.
Three major fires in 1742, 1751, and 1798 led to reconstructions by renowned architects Carlo Fontana and Antonio Galli da Bibiena.
