Circus Krone is a historically significant circus located in Munich. Established in 1905 by Carl Hagenbeck, it initially featured animals but transitioned to a more artistically focused circus program in the 1990s, phasing out animal acts. The current building, a distinctive blue-and-yellow striped tent structure erected in 1984, has become a landmark of the city. It's capable of holding over 5,000 spectators and regularly hosts circus performances alongside concerts and other large-scale events. The venue’s unique atmosphere stems from its long history as a traditional circus and its modern adaptation as a multi-purpose entertainment space. The Krone maintains a reputation for high-quality productions and international artistry.
