Wrocław Puppet Theater, Puppet theater in Theater Square, Wrocław, Poland
The Wrocław Puppet Theater sits in a Neo-Baroque building with Art Nouveau details located on Theater Square. Inside are one large hall seating around 250 people and two smaller performance spaces designed to host different types of shows.
The building was designed by architect Albert Grau and constructed between 1892 and 1894. Originally built to house a merchants association, it was converted into a theater in 1946 after the Second World War.
This venue brings together audiences of all ages to experience stories told through puppetry, with productions that span from classic children's literature to modern theatrical experiments. The performances here reflect how puppet theater remains a living art form that speaks to contemporary interests while honoring traditional storytelling.
The theater sits in a central location on Theater Square and is easy to reach on foot from most parts of the city. Check ahead for current schedules since performance times vary based on the season and which shows are running.
The theater operates the Bajkobus, a mobile miniature stage that travels the region with two separate puppet scenes. This traveling stage brings performances to communities that might not otherwise visit the main building.
