Concerts, operas, theatre plays and more
The King Albert Theatre has a rich history. The theatre began to operate as early as 1888. From 1913 to 1914, the famous Chemnitz architects Alfred Zapp and Erich Basarke built a modern new building. In the auditorium, Doric columns meet the second Dresden Rococo style and create a refined ambience. In May 1914, His Majesty King Frederick August III of Saxony ceremoniously opened the King Albert Theatre as the last German court theatre.
