Landestheater (Regional Theater)
The Salzburg “Landestheater” began its history as a building decorated with opulent rococo ornamentations. It was dedicated on the 1st of October 1893 with the performance of Mozart’s Opera “La Clemenza di Tito”. In 1938/39 the face of the building was altered. The ramp and the decorative embellishments had fallen victim to the renovation process, and a much needed main foyer and a so called revolving stage were added. A second renovation process which took place in 1977/78 brought about additional improvements of the stage equipment and a modern air-conditioning system was installed. The spectator hall encompasses 697 seats and is used for Theatrical as well as Operatic performances.
