    In 1653, Archduke Ferdinand Karl, one of the two sons of Archduchess Claudia de 'Medici and Archduke Leopold V, commissioned the construction of the Hoftopernhaus by Christoph Gumpp.
    At this point Giuseppe Segusini built a theater from 1844-1846. From this building are still the outer walls and the classical column portico preserved. The other parts of the building were rebuilt in the 60s of the 20th century.
    Landestheater, Leopoldsbrunnen, Stadtcafe, Volkskunstmuseum, Hofkirche, Hofburg, Congress, Hofgarten and Rennweg form an inner-city ensemble, framed in the north by the rugged limestone walls of the Nordkette with Frau Hitt, Brandjoch, Seegrube and Hafelekar, to name only the most famous mountains.

        The Tyrolean State Theater is in Innsbruck. The big house has about 800 seats. The Kammerspiele as a second venue is housed in the neighboring Haus der Musik. The program includes drama, opera, operettas, musicals and dance theater; the Tyrolean Symphony Orchestra is responsible for the music.

        In 1629 it was converted from one of the ballrooms on Rennplatz into a comedy house by the architect Christoph Gumpp the Younger - Archduke Leopold's large stage. In 1654, a new house built by Christoph Gumpp was opened on the other side of the Rennweg, exactly where today's State Theater is. In 1765 the court theater was renovated. During the Bavarian occupation in 1805, the Innsbruck theater was called the Royal Bavarian Court National Theater. In 1844 it was closed due to disrepair.

        A theater company was set up and raised 40,000 guilders for a new building. The new house opened in 1846. From 1938–1945 the Innsbruck City Theater became the Reichsgautheater Innsbruck, after the end of the Second World War in 1945/1946 the Tyrolean State Theater. In 1959 the Kammerspiele opened in the basement of the city hall building. The Tyrolean State Theater (large house) was closed in 1961 and rebuilt and significantly expanded in the following years. It was reopened in 1967. In 1991/1992 the adjacent Kammerspiele were renovated and converted into a flexible room theater.

        In 2003 the new rehearsal stage, planned by the architects Karl and Probst from Munich, was completed as an extension to the Great House. With its three venues, the Landestheater meets the requirements of a modern stage operation and ensures that sophisticated theater can continue to take place in Innsbruck. As part of the construction work in 2003, the facade of the State Theater was renovated and the forecourt was redesigned. The city halls with the Kammerspiele right next to the big house were demolished in 2015/2016. The House of Music was opened at the same location in 2018, which includes a small studio stage ("Black Box") and the new Kammerspiele with around 200 seats as well as a rehearsal hall for the Tyrolean Symphony Orchestra and rooms for the Tyrolean State Conservatory. There is also a place for the Institute for Musicology at the University of Innsbruck.
