In 1865, Richard Wagner had to flee from Munich, but in 1901 the residents of Munich eventually built the Prince Regent Theatre for the operas he composed. The architect Max Littmann was inspired by Wagner’s festival hall in Bayreuth and gave the theatre a modern look. It now hosts performances, concerts and events of all sorts. Visitors taking a tour through the playhouse will discover the well-preserved historical stage machinery. Littmann’s first theatre, the Kammerspiele, is not far away.
