Marstall in Putbus palace park
The Marstall, located in the heart of the Putbus palace park on Rügen, is an impressive neoclassical building that has graced the „White City“ on Germany’s largest island for over 200 years.
A listed building
Built between 1821 and 1824 by order of Wilhelm Malte I, Prince of Putbus, the Marstall originally served as a royal horse stable and is now a listed building. After the Second World War, the damaged building was lovingly restored several times and used as a theater workshop, living space, and storage area.
Today, the Marstall shines in new splendor and is one of the largest event halls on the island of Rügen.

Venue for the Festspiele MV
Every summer, the Marstall transforms into a popular venue for the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania Festival) or a trade fair ground for the LebensArt Putbus. International orchestras and nationally renowned music stars grace this popular event location. Classical concerts, operas, ballets, and theater plays take place in the impressive ambiance of the Marstall, enchanting the audience with a diverse program.
The premises of the Marstall in Putbus not only offer a stage for impressive performances and cultural programs but also for private events: from classical productions to contemporary pieces to experimental theater formats or exhibitions and workshops – there’s something for every taste.

Unique architecture in the palace park
With its diverse program, the Marstall enriches the cultural life in Putbus and the surrounding region.
Nestled in the idyllic Palace Park, surrounded by old trees and manicured green spaces, the Marstall provides a picturesque backdrop for unforgettable moments. If you visit the „Rose City“ of Putbus, you should definitely stop by the Marstall to experience the cultural history of the White City up close.
However, not only the Marstall offers visitors uniquely beautiful architecture; a visit to the Orangerie Putbus is also worthwhile.
Orangerie Putbus
Prince Malte zu Putbus also had the Orangerie built to expand the palace garden into an English landscape park with neoclassical park buildings. Built instead of a Belvedere, the Orangerie served as a greenhouse and winter quarters for exotic plants and trees.
Today, the Orangerie is a vibrant cultural venue and houses an exhibition on the history of Putbus. In addition to changing exhibitions and an impressive view of the park, the Orangerie also offers space for cultural events such as concerts, readings, and theater performances.
