Evidence of "theatrical life" in Nordhausen can be traced back to the 16th century.
After an eventful history through two world wars, the post-war period and the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Theater Nordhausen, together with the Loh-Orchester Sondershausen, is one of the most important cultural institutions in northern Thuringia. The much-acclaimed productions of the 3-division theatre attract audiences from far beyond the borders of Thuringia.
