Friedrich-Wolf-Theater

1950s theatre and cultural house on Lindenallee.

The Friedrich-Wolf-Theater is one of the planned city's clearest public buildings, a 1950s theatre and cultural house on Lindenallee. It shows how the new city was meant to provide not just housing for steelworkers, but a complete civic life.

Even if you do not see a performance, the building is worth including on a walk through the centre. Its scale, foyer, and position on the avenue make the social ambition of Stalinstadt easier to understand.
