The Deutsches Theatermuseum is the memory of the ephemeral art of theater. The German Theatre Museum, centrally located in the arcades of Munich's Hofgarten, has set itself the task of collecting, preserving and exhibiting theatrical memory and thus making theater history(ies) visible as cultural history(ies) and putting them up for discussion. In changing special exhibitions and through its extensive collection, the museum invites visitors to engage with and research theater history in its regional, national and international context.
