Marionette Theater Salzburg

The Salzburg Marionette theater has been in existence for nearly a century. Established in 1913, the Marionette theater acts as a small opera house for great operas. Die Fledermaus by Johann Strauss is in the repertoire as are operas by Rossini and ballet by Offenbach. About 160 performances a year take place in the Baroque-style theater. But, the puppets on strings are not just stars in Salzburg, they perform all over the world from Paris to Tokyo.
