Beautiful place. 2nd largest performing arts theatre in Germany. Draws the very best symponies and conductorrs. http://www.festspielhaus.de/. Walking distance to downtown and shopping.

I have attended 3 performances here--a dance concert, an opera and a classical music concert. The acoustics were extremely fine, the crowd elegant and enthusiastic and the prices fair. Top quality performers are attracted to this comfortable, relatively new opera house, which has a lovely policy of handing a rose to everyone as they exist.

Though I had known the artists would be wonderful, the theatre itself was a delightful surprise, attractive, and very good acoustically. NEGATIVE SIDE: The concert hall and all rooms were extremely over heated at all performances, detracting from the pleasure of the events.
