The Hessian State Theater was built in neo-baroque style by two famous Viennese architects for Emperor Wilhelm II, and opened in 1894. Various extensions and reconstructions have been carried out since, and the frescos, stuccowork, and sculptures are a sight to behold. Classical and contemporary opera, theater, ballet, and musicals are presented on the theater's four stages.
This is a major venue for comedy and cabaret.
Chamber-music concerts are given regularly at the Schumannhaus, where composer Robert Schumann spent his final years.
