It was founded in 1748 at the initiative of King Frederick V, and since its beginnings it has stood out for being a multipurpose stage, presenting dramatic art, opera, ballet and orchestra activities. It has had several demolitions and renovations, mainly the theater from 1857 and the one from 1874, for which there was a competition in which the best architects in Denmark participated, with Ove Petersen's design winning. In front of the current building you can see the bronze statues of the playwrights Adam Oehlenschläger and Ludvig Holberg."
