Nestled in the charming city of Bayreuth, Germany, the Margravial Opera House stands as a magnificent testament to 18th-century Baroque architecture. Constructed between 1745 and 1750 by renowned architect Giuseppe Galli Bibiena and his son Carlo for Margravine Wilhelmine of Brandenburg-Bayreuth, this opera house is celebrated for its opulent interior adorned with exquisite woodwork and breathtaking frescoes.
Beautiful! Beautiful and again Beautiful place! Very affordable, interesting exposition about history of the theater. Really worth visiting. There is WC (you don't have to buy ticket for that). Note, that you can't go with your backpack and it has to be stored so keep 1 euro coin to lock the locker

Beautiful opera house and super interesting museum. Kids (10,7,5) loved it. There is a special riddle game for kids to and some interactive pieces in the museum - we spent over 2 hours there.
Katharina S — Google review
From the outside you could mistake it for any other old tenement house. Inside it's the most impressive opera I have ever seen, worthy of UNESCO title for sure. The visit to the Opera is limited to ground floor seats and a view from one of the lounges (unless you go with the guide) after that it's a modern museum, which is also quite interesting and has a miniature scene with which you can play. You can't bring any bags even the smallest ones, cabinets are downstairs for 1euro you get back. I wish someday to visit a play here since it has to be magical.

We visited Bayreuth Opera House with friends from Italy, full of excitement to see this UNESCO World Heritage site. The historical and artistic value of this cultural landmark is very important to us. Unfortunately, our experience was quite negative. While tour groups accompanied by guides were allowed to freely go upstairs and sit in the seats, we – as independent visitors – were repeatedly warned by staff at every step. Even though we did not break any rules, one staff member in particular kept telling us “don’t touch” in an insistent manner, which felt both unnecessary and discriminatory. At the same time, other tourists in the same areas received no such warnings, making it clear that we were treated unequally. We shared our concerns with the staff at the entrance, not only for our own sake but also as important feedback to help improve the visitor experience for such a significant cultural heritage site. Unfortunately, our complaint did not seem to be taken seriously. This attitude is unworthy of such a valuable cultural monument and its visitors. I felt disrespected and singled out, and it ruined the enjoyment of our visit. I sincerely hope that this kind of discriminatory treatment will end, and that all visitors will be treated equally and respectfully.

Museum
If you're intrigued by the world of classical music, a visit to the Richard Wagner Museum is an absolute must! Nestled in Bayreuth, this expansive museum comprises three distinct buildings that delve into the life and legacy of the legendary composer Richard Wagner. Here, you can explore permanent exhibitions showcasing his works and influence, alongside a special exhibition area enriched by research from the Richard Wagner Foundation. The museum's mission is to safeguard Wagner's artistic heritage for future generations, particularly inspiring young artists.
Great place to visit and learn more about Wagner. But ONLY if you're interested in Wagner. Basicly it's 3 museums. Wahnfried, where he lived is about where he lived and his life. Then the house next to it where his son Siegfried lived with his wife Winnifred, showing the darker side of the Wagner family history. Then there is the latest modern addition which houses an exhibition of custumes of the Wagner operas and temporary exhibitions. There is also a silent movie made for his 100th birthday. All in all very interesting and informative.
Michiel F — Google review
two floors of exhibitions. the underground is for wagner's operas costumes and the actors who played the roles in history along side replicas from the opera theatre. the ground floor is in a form of educational about the life path and the life stages of the composer. the ticket also allows you to enter the Wahnfriedhaus and the small garden house.
David A — Google review
Enjoyed walking around Wagner's house, there was an English translation if you want one. One of the gentlemen who worked there gave me a mini personal tour in German, which was lovely. He also informed me that the Listz's house was next door. The coffee shop was good with some yummy cakes.
Matt T — Google review
Nice audioguide. Comprehensive music recording archive to listen to with headphones of great quality. Love the decoration style and interior design of the museum — they go well with the Wagnerian culture with a “theatrical effect” itself. Staff is considerate and gentle.

Good, small museum. Well documented perspective on his life and works. Including some of the dark side (not his gruesome writings though?). Quiet, serene, tasteful.
Michiel B — Google review
Way above my anticipation! I was gonna visit the liszt museum but RWM was on the way, in the end this one trumpped Liszt museum from a non-German speaker, non-Wagner fan's viewpoint. To start with, impressive collections of costumes and opera set design down the -1 floor, with helpful staff who gave me an informative explanation when my tour guide stopped working. (sidenote: its a bit sad to see the conductor wall swarming with nothing but white men) The museum buildings have been renovated in recent years in a fancy but not extravagant way. And they have the most comfortable sofa seat of all the museums that Ive been. P4 is Wagner's study/workplace, what a view!

Operas
The Bayreuth Festival Theatre is a 19th-century venue with a grand stage specifically designed for the works of composer Richard Wagner. It hosts the annual Bayreuth Festival, a renowned opera celebration that attracts visitors from around the world. The city also offers a vibrant culinary scene, featuring traditional Bavarian eateries, trendy cafes, and craft beer breweries. Notable landmarks in Bayreuth include the Margrave's Opera House, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
The Bayreuther Festspielhaus is for all Opera enthusiasts and culture lovers. This place is worth a longer visit. Ofcourse especially for the Wagner Opera weeks in summer. It might just a bit tricky to get tickets, just be pacient. Here are also a few very disappointing things. First of all… parking is 10€ to be paid in cash (just be aware). Also you are not allowed to bring in bags bigger than a small handbag, also sitting pillows are not any longer allowed to bring in - you need to get them inside (if you are lucky). One last thing, a small Mineral Water (0,25l) is 5,50€. - Just a pity they take such an advantage out of their guests.

Had a nice stroll along the theater - located on a hill - and in the park in front of it. We didn't go inside, but from the outside, it does have a nice view!
Stefan H — Google review
Attending the Bayreuth Festival is an indelible experience for all Wagner fans and also for anyone who loves our is interested in Western culture. The productions can be uneven because of the German love of theatrical deconstructionism (Regietheater), but the music making and all the craziness surrounding the festival itself is truly something to be experienced at least once in one's life.
Carl E — Google review
Beautiful opera house with amazing acoustics. The only downside is the lack of translation of the libretto… I know, many would say: ‘that’s how Wagner left it’🥹 Summer 2025: Tristan and Isolde had fabulous musical performance and Meistersinger had beautiful staging.
Gabriel B — Google review
Really enjoyed my evening here. The sound in the opera hall is really great. With every seat sold the theater was really fully packed, but even though the place was so crowded, the politeness and hospitality of the attendees and the staffs at the various venues lent to a very enjoyable and stress-free evening. I would recommend anyone to attend this venue. I watched Tristan and Isolde, the Performances, the staging, and choreography especially between the orchestra and the singers was unmatched, as this is one of the most difficult operas to coordinate. It was excellently done and a pleasure to experience.
Swede S — Google review
Just got back from seeing the entire Ring Cycle last week. If you are lucky enough to get tickets, go without hesitation. We were sat in the mittleloge (bottom row of boxes) and had an excellent view of the stage despite being the back row because the rake is excellent. The seats were cushioned & very comfy (nothing like the "hard wooden" description I was expecting! The stalls seats are less padded though from appearance, but you can borrow cushions from the theatre if necessary). Yes the direction/set was a bit whacky (so if you're a purist this may not be your cup of tea), but the sound is like nothing else you'll ever experience - world class singers, world class orchestra, perfect balance (due to the orchestra being under the stage), could hear every word (not that I understood it but no matter if you know the story the acting and music will be enough). Tasty bratwurst for the intervals, no dress code (although a lot of people dress up, I'd say don't go in your jeans!). Excellent all round.

Razvan D — Google review
I have waited more than 10 years for tickets to the Wagner Festspiel, and it was well worth the wait. I was concerned that the opera house does not have AC and the seats are uncomfortable, but it really was quite bearable. The dress is formal, and the audience remained still as a mouse for the entire two and a half hours of the performance of Das Rheingod that I saw. There are no surtitles so you need to do your homework. The singing is world-class and the orchestra perfect in all regards. The sound from the Wagner orchestra pit lives up to all the hype. The orchestra, including the brass, can play at full volume, but they never cover the singers, and every word can be understood. Amazing! A word about the Bayreuth productions, they have been described as avant guard. They certainly may not be to everyone's taste, but it is, after all, part of the Festspiel "experience." If you are fortunate to get tickets to this unique venue, give it a try. There is nothing else like it in the world.

The Hermitage New Palace, also known as Neues Schloss, is a historical gem left by Wilhelmine in Bayreuth. After the old palace was destroyed by fire in 1753, a more grandiose replacement was constructed while the couple traveled to Italy. Despite financial constraints, this palace stands as a testament to opulence and elegance. The palace and its surrounding park offer an ever-changing spectacle throughout the seasons, making it a delightful destination year-round.
built in the middle of the 18th century as a summer residence for the Margrave couple. im form of a half circle with golden figures and statues. decorated with precious stones and facing a huge fountain, activities for family take place here but its not actually a museum or a castle to visit. its like a gate to the gardens and the old castle. cafes, wc and game rooms are now here.

The Hermitage Old Palace in Bayreuth is a historic and extensive complex featuring various water features, artificial ruins, and a magnificent sun temple. Visitors can explore the city's museums, landmarks, parks, and gardens including the Eremitage and the Hofgarten. The guided tour of the palace offers an immersive experience with captivating stories from its past.
I didn't have time to visit the inside, which apparently is also quite amazing. However it is beautifully combined in the park with cascades from the water front. Especially interesting are the sides which look like they are carved from stone.

the old summer residence for the Magrave famous couple and the local rulers. only visited by guided tour. water game at the beginning and then a series of rooms inside which paintings and antiquities are available to see. in each room an employee tell you the story of the room design but you're free also to discover it alone and take pictures.

I visited on a rainy Friday morning and walked virtually alone through the vast gardens, awestruck with the beauty of man, nature and time. Among the highlights are striking allees flanked by hornbeam hedges, some quite mature. Beautiful walks, water features, flower plantings, mature tree specimens, linden promenades. Meticulously cultivated and worthy, worthy, worthy of your time.

You need to get tickets for the tour of the castle and the tour is 1h long, but really worth it. The lady, who was our tour guide was excellent. She really transported us back in time while telling us the important stories of the palace. The 1 hour flew by. The palace is not like your usual palace, but it feels more like a residence / home with hidden secrets. I definately recommend booking a tour (we had the tour in German). It is also not that expensive.

Eremitage, also known as the Hermitage, is a stunning 18th-century palace surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens located on the outskirts of Bayreuth, Germany. Originally a gift from the margrave to his well-educated princess, it was later expanded by her to include additional fountains, the Temple of the Sun, and an orangery. The palace and its picturesque gardens offer visitors a serene setting for leisurely walks, picnics, and photo opportunities.
Really nice garden for sightseers and pass 3 hours with family. Well maintained, though the water fountains were closed and covered during winter time. There is a big parking for free beside the garden.

We visited the Eermitage because we love palaces, and especially the gardens surrounding them. Before arriving, we carefully reviewed maps and websites, checking the attractiveness of the place in terms of landscape architecture, both large and small. Upon arrival, we were shocked; what we saw exceeded our expectations and imaginations. I'll start with the convenient and spacious parking lot right at the park entrance. Beyond the gate, a different world begins: a world of paths, water, fountains, and secluded romantic spots. The new palace, the old palace, the Chinese pavilion, the orangery, the dragon's cave, lakes, streams, waterfalls, canals, and many other charming and beautiful places, all nestled among the greenery and miles of park paths. The entire experience captivated us. The park is very extensive, and we got a little lost, traversing some of the paths several times. Although there are information boards and signposts, we felt they were a bit lacking. A brochure with a park map would have been very helpful. The parking lot lacked a designated spot for a camper. We visited the park in May and will definitely return in the fall because it's a beautiful, charming, interesting, and noteworthy place.

Beautiful grounds a short drive away from Bayreuth. Spend a few hours wandering around very peaceful and serene landscapes and enjoy watching the fountains (be careful with the grotto or else you'll get wet when those fountains start!). There is a cafe on site for food and drink as well. Free entry and also plenty of free parking available.

The Franz Liszt Museum is a small but dense and informative museum that offers an interesting experience even for knowledgeable fans. The museum features artifacts, letters, and memorabilia related to Franz Liszt, including a letter from Wagner with a humorous plea for help. Most of the information is in German and French, making it an enriching experience for those familiar with these languages. Despite its size, the museum provides a wealth of history about Liszt's family and later life.
A museum small but dense, informative and interesting enough even for a knowledgeable fan. Wagner’s letter to Liszt saying « Help me! Help me! Dear Liszt » was kinda funny 😆 The receptionist speaks a bit mandarin and has a great pronunciation. She has a really nice attitude and smiles a lot:)

The staff is really nice, normal fare 2 eur and reduced is 1 eur, the small museum collects many stuff, **but if you don't speak either German or French, don't come.** I saw one review below saying "have some dignity and dont leave a negative review here, you don't go here to notice youre not home". Thats not true - when we go abroad, we visit museum to learn smth we can't learn at home or from school, isn't that the meaning of a museum? "warm and nice" is for a cafe. Despite my words above, the collections are worth the fare. But Id pay more if the museum team could spend some effort making this museum readable for non-German speakers (speaking of that, the Liszt museum in Budapest is amazing at that).

I was locked in the museum 2min before the official closing time and I had to call the police to get me out. It’s a little bit disappointing after so many things happened.

(Translated by Google) Another highlight of your visit to Bayreuth should be the old and new castles. The new castle was built because a fire almost destroyed the old one. It was later rebuilt over years of painstaking work. Today, unfortunately, the tax office is located in the old castle. The new castle, however, is used for state receptions and banquets. You can also visit us every day. Not far from the New Castle you can find the Bayreuth City Church. The City Church is a three-aisled Evangelical basilica in the late Gothic style and the largest church in the city The previous building dedicated to St. Magdalene, a daughter church of St. Nicholas Church in the old town, was destroyed in a city fire in 1605. Reconstruction of the church began in 1611 on the first Advent. In 1614 it was consecrated to the Holy Trinity. (Original) Ein weiteres Highlight bei ihrem Besuch in Bayreuth sollte das alte und das neue Schloss sein das neue Schloss wurde gebaut da ein Brand das alte fast zunichte gemacht hat es wurde später in jahrelanger Kleinstarbeit wieder aufgebaut heute befindet sich im alten Schloss leider das Finanzamt das neue Schloss hingegen wird für Staatsempfänge und Bankette genutzt sie können uns auch täglich besichtigen nicht unweit vom Neuen Schloss ist die Bayreuther Stadtkirche zu finden die Stadtkirche ist eine dreischiffige Evangelische Basilika im spätgotischen Stil und die größte Kirche der Stadt der heiligen Magdalena geweihte Vorgängerbau eine Tochter Kirche der St Nikolaus Kirche in der Altstadt wurde bei einem Stadtbrand im Jahre 1605 zerstört 1611 begann der Wiederaufbau der Kirche am ersten Advent 1614 wurde sie der heiligen Dreifaltigkeit geweiht.

Wahnfried is the former residence of the renowned composer Richard Wagner, now part of the Bayreuth Richard Wagner Museum. The museum focuses on Wagner's life, work, and legacy. It showcases detailed exhibits including his scripts, the opera house he built, and costumes from his works. Additionally, visitors can explore the place where Wagner lived and learn about his history and family.
Very impressed by the modern, well-balanced, elegant setup of this museum. A cool haven on a hot day. Take your time to sit down and listen to Wagner music while contemplating a subterranean zen garden. Admire intricate paper dioramas of opera decors.

David A — Google review
A museum dedicated to Richard Wagner, but you will learn only odd bits of information about him here. Perhaps there is an assumption that the people who visit are all Wagner devotees who know everything about him. It is worth seeing the rooms on the ground floor of the house, which have been restored to look as they did when Wagner lived there, but many items are covered up and unable to be seen. The upper floor which is supposed to describe his life is organised in a series of rooms, each of which deals with a certain period. Fine in principle, but there is no indication of where you should go to in what order. Some years appeared to be missing altogether. The actual content is scant - facsimiles of scores, copies of photos etc. Some limited information is given about Wagner on a sign in each room, but we are never told how he came to be given a house by the king of Bavaria. Or how he came to be so rich that he could have portraits and sculptures of himself and his family made by top artists, when for long periods of his life he had to move frequently because he was so poor. So much about him is left out. How was he able to build his own opera house? You won't find out here. The information on the main signs in each room is in both German and English, but the English is so poor (google translate?) that it is at times laughable. So many people come to Bayreuth for the Wagner Festival paying so much money - is it really too much to ask that some of that money could have been spent on having proper English translations? And don't bother with the audio guide. There's hardly anything on it.

A really in-depth museum that does great justice to Wagner! It did a good job of covering his life and gave lots of interesting insights to him and his family. Occasionally there was info only in German, and I wish there were English translations for all the info boards, but it’s still super enjoyable for a Wagner fan regardless of your language. I think the entry price is fair when compared to other museums I’ve visited around Europe so far. This was my favourite day of my Europe trip and I’m very glad I got to visit
Alice K — Google review
Great place to visit and learn more about Wagner. But ONLY if you're interested in Wagner. Basicly it's 3 museums. Wahnfried, where he lived is about where he lived and his life. Then the house next to it where his son Siegfried lived with his wife Winnifred, showing the darker side of the Wagner family history. Then there is the latest modern addition which houses an exhibition of custumes of the Wagner operas and temporary exhibitions. There is also a silent movie made for his 100th birthday. All in all very interesting and informative.

Enjoyed walking around Wagner's house, there was an English translation if you want one. One of the gentlemen who worked there gave me a mini personal tour in German, which was lovely. He also informed me that the Listz's house was next door. The coffee shop was good with some yummy cakes.

Way above my anticipation! I was gonna visit the liszt museum but RWM was on the way, in the end this one trumpped Liszt museum from a non-German speaker, non-Wagner fan's viewpoint. To start with, impressive collections of costumes and opera set design down the -1 floor, with helpful staff who gave me an informative explanation when my tour guide stopped working. (sidenote: its a bit sad to see the conductor wall swarming with nothing but white men) The museum buildings have been renovated in recent years in a fancy but not extravagant way. And they have the most comfortable sofa seat of all the museums that Ive been. P4 is Wagner's study/workplace, what a view!

Wonderful museum for children. We say a lot of artefacts. Bayreuth was located near path that was not iced so here a lot of interesting findings. We also saw a film about second flour. Children were happy to play with sand. On Sunday it costs only 1€ for each person except baby. On the third floor there was a nice crystal room. And another place about Pangea we did not see because someone occupied it for 2 hours 🙉 . Highly recommended!

If you're searching for another fantastic brewery and activity in Bayreuth, Germany for beer enthusiasts, make sure to visit Becher Bräu e.K., a family-owned and operated brewpub. It is located a short distance from the city center but is definitely worth the walk. Although we couldn't secure a spot inside due to its cozy appearance, we opted to sit outside despite the dropping temperatures.
It's a fair little walk from the center but well worth it. Couldn't get a spot in the cozy looking interior so sat outside despite temps dropping. We managed to have a nice meal rather quickly. We had a nice plate of Kalterbraten and another hot beef meal with potato pancakes. Their unfiltered Pils was good but the Dunkles was excellent even if not on tap. Sadly, they only had one bottle so we had to share it. :( Guess we'll have to go back and this time, I'll make a reservation or go in a warmer month!

(Translated by Google) November 9, 2019 In a recent report by Bayer. A radio broadcast about the typewriter museum shows one of the employees explaining that the typewriter has been replaced by the computer. This is not entirely true. Thanks to the computer, typewriters have largely disappeared, but the computer could not replace the typewriter. In the past, forms were usually filled out using a typewriter. You cannot normally fill out a form with a computer (unless it is specifically specified in the program). That's why forms are now always filled out by hand, even by people who can use the keyboard. If you know the different handwritings of people, you know what the readability is like. This is clearly a step backwards from the “typewriter era”. There can therefore be no question of a replacement, but rather of a “displacement” without offering an equivalent replacement. Perhaps the Typewriter Museum should look at this from this perspective and point out this regression, especially as “typewriter nostalgics”, especially since many forms are filled out in everyday life and these days this is mostly done in a primitive way by handwriting. Furthermore, it is very commendable that there are volunteers who dedicate themselves to the development of the typewriter and do not let this time be forgotten. The city of Bayreuth should support this as much as possible and also strive for better marketing in the interests of tourism. Good luck and determination to everyone involved here. (Original) 09.11.2019 In einem kürzlichen Bericht des Bayer. Rundfunk über das Schreibmaschinenmuseum wird einer der Mitarbeiter gezeigt, der ausführt, dass die Schreibmaschine durch den Computer ersetzt worden ist. Dies trifft so nicht ganz zu. Durch den Computer sind die Schreibmaschinen zwar weitgehend verschwunden, jedoch ersetzen konnte der Computer die Schreibmaschine nicht. Früher wurden Formulare in aller Regel mit der Schreibmaschine ausgefüllt. Mit dem Computer kann man normalerweise ein Formular nicht ausfüllen (es sei denn es ist speziell im Programm vorgegeben). Deshalb werden jetzt Formulare auch von Leuten die die Tastatur beherrschen immer handschriftlich ausgefüllt. Wenn man die verschiedenen Handschriften der Menschen kennt, weiß man wie es diesbezüglich um die Lesbarkeit bestellt ist. Dies ist eindeutig ein Rückschritt gegenüber der „Schreibmaschinenzeit“. Von einem Ersetzen kann daher nicht die Rede sein vielmehr von einem „Verdrängen“ ohne insoweit einen gleichwertigen Ersatz zu bieten. Vielleicht sollte das Schreibmaschinenmuseum dies auch einmal unter diesem Aspekt sehen und gerade als „Schreibmaschinen-Nostalgiker“ auf diesen Rückschritt hinweisen, zumal im Alltag viele Formblätter ausgefüllt werden und dies heutzutage größtenteils primitiv per Handschrift erfolgt. Im übrigen ist es sehr lobenswert, dass es Ehrenamtliche gibt, die sich der Entwicklung der Schreibmaschine widmen und diese Zeit nicht vergessen lassen. Die Stadt Bayreuth sollte dies nach Kräften unterstützen und auch im Interesse des Tourismus eine bessere Vermarktung anstreben. Allen die hier mitwirken viel Erfolg und Zielstrebigkeit.
