Teatr im. Heleny Modrzejewskiej, State drama theater in Legnica, Poland
The theater operates in a neoclassical building modeled after the Strozzi Palace in Florence, featuring an iron curtain and multiple evacuation routes.
Carl Ferdinand Langhans designed this theater which opened on December 25, 1842 with Friedrich Halm's play The Son of the Wilderness.
The theater presents dramas, musicals, and dance performances while organizing the International Theatre Festival City throughout various locations in Legnica.
Following extensive renovations between 1891 and 1893, the building received safety improvements including new emergency exits and fire protection systems.
From 1945 to 1964, the Soviet Red Army maintained exclusive control of the theater, removing valuable items before returning it to Polish authorities.
