The historic theatres in Europe form an outstanding part of the mutual European cultural heritage. Whether you can explore them as museums or enjoy special performances, whether they are open to the public or private property: here the history of Europe comes to life in its most enchanting form.

In order to secure these treasures for future generations, PERSPECTIV - ASSOCIATION OF HISTORIC THEATRES IN EUROPE was inaugurated in October 2003. The non-profit organization wants to:

  • encourage and support the conservation and restoration of historic theatres
  • secure the continuous exchange between these theatres and everybody interested in them
  • initiate and support research
  • introduce the public to this extraordinary European cultural heritage

Members of the Association are historic theatres built between 1500 and about 1900. Furthermore, everybody who supports the goals of the Association can become a member. Please contact us if you would like to know more.
