Note: Built 1968 by Alfred Koch, Edwin Steinhauer, and Gerhard Troitzsch. Opened 21 Sep 1968 with Mozart's Die Zauberflöte by the Nationaltheater Mannheim ensemble. The complex comprises a theatre (1174 seats), two concert halls (1088 seats and 381 seats), three function rooms and a restaurant. The theatre is mainly used as a guest venue for opera, ballet and drama productions by touring companies, often co-produced by the resident theatre administration. The larger concert hall is mainly used for symphonic concerts by the Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz and other orchestras. The Pfalzbau complex is also used as a multi-purpose venue for congresses and conventions.
