Bayreuth
The Bayreuth Festival - the name continues to stand for itself, despite all the headlines that the festival has made in recent years, some of them unintentionally. Richard Wagner’s Festspielhaus was built between 1872 and 1875 and is only used from July 25 to August 28 each year. Following the ancient model of an amphitheatre, the rows of seats rise evenly and thus provide an ideal view in addition to the outstanding acoustics due to the wooden construction of the auditorium and the orchestra pit, which is up to 12 meters deep.
