    Meissen Theater
    The Meißen Theater has been one of the cultural gems of the regional cultural landscape for over 160 years.
    As early as 1287, a previous building was mentioned as a cloth house at the location of the current theater building. During this time, the three powers - margrave, burgrave and bishop - were enthroned on the nearby castle hill. In Meißen - as the "cradle of Saxony" - cultural and economic life was already stirring over 200 years before the later residential and state capital Dresden was founded.

    A building at the fair was first mentioned in 1287. At that time it was a cloth house that was built in this increasingly important market town.

    For centuries the theater was brought to the city by minstrels or "wandering comedians", but it was not until 1851 that the Meißner theater moved into the Gewandhaus at the fair.

    The theater was also badly affected by the flood in 2002, but reconstruction and renovation were completed in 2004 and theater operations were resumed.
