The theater, which was built between 1911 and 1913, has an eventful history. The building was destroyed by allied air attacks in February 1945, reconstructed in the postwar years, and damaged by floods in August 2002. During an 18‑week break, the Dresden theater was extensively renovated and modernized.
Due to the short time limit, there were up to 230 workers on site, working in three shifts. The reconstruction included, among other things, renovation of the stage equipment and strengthening of the roof structure of the stage tower. The engineers of KREBS+KIEFER analyzed the stability of the stage roof using RSTAB. The stability analysis detected deficiencies in the load‑bearing capacity, which required reinforcement measures.
