Stadttheater Berndorf is a historic theatre distinguished by a Neo-Renaissance exterior that resembles an elegant villa more than a conventional theatre building. Constructed at the end of the 19th century to designs by architects Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer, its auditorium accommodates around 460 seated guests. The stalls, gallery and four proscenium boxes create a compact layout that keeps the stage visually close to much of the audience.
The interior is designed in a Neo-Baroque style, with decorative details and frescoes that preserve the atmosphere of a historic theatre. Seating is distributed across the stalls, gallery and boxes, offering different perspectives on the stage, while the venue is accessible for visitors with reduced mobility and includes designated wheelchair spaces. The intimate scale of the auditorium is well suited to theatre productions, concerts, cabaret and other live performances.
The theatre is located at Kislingerplatz 6, Berndorf, Austria. Visitors arriving by car can use the large public parking area behind the town hall at Kislingerplatz 2–4, followed by a short walk to the theatre entrance.
