About

Zytglogge Theater Bern is a beloved cellar theatre located at Kornhausplatz, known for its intimate setting and vibrant Swiss German productions. Originally founded in 1949 as Theater der Untern Stadt, it evolved into a hub for Bernese nonconformist culture and was reborn in 1994 under its current name. Today, it hosts a mix of in-house productions and guest performances, ranging from lighthearted comedies to socially reflective dramas. The theatre’s commitment to dialect and regional storytelling gives its shows a distinct local flavor, while events like the Volkstheaterfestival and the Schweizer Vorlesetag highlight its community spirit.
