Rheinsberg Palace – Hedge Theater

Like nowhere else, Rheinsberg Palace’s gardens are a testament to the transition from French garden design to early landscape gardening. Prince Henry, who loved the arts, made Rheinsberg a leading center of artistic creativity, and had a Hedge Theater built south of the palace island, inside the park, where plays, operas and concerts were staged. During the Baroque and Rococo periods, hedge theaters were popular outdoor venues with a designated area for the stage and audience, which was framed by artfully trimmed hedges arranged in tiers.

To this day the Rheinsberg Hedge Theater infuses each event with its unique magic and inimitable flair.
