Note: Built 1873-1875 by Stanisław Hebanowski, funded by the Polish-speaking population of Poznań who were forbidden to produce drama in Polish at the Stadttheater. A centre of Polish nationalism, the Teatr Polski was the only theatre in German Poland where productions were given in Polish until the 1890s. 1918 combined with the former Stadttheater to form the Teatry Miejskie (Municipal Theatres). Used for drama performances.
