Miskolc, the secrets of the city by the Bükk Mountains - In the footsteps of Déryné
Behind the scenes at the Miskolc National Theatre
There is a place in Miskolc where stories have been born for over two centuries.
Where the city's dreams, dramas, and legends come to life on stage night after night.
This place is the Miskolc National Theatre.
On the special thematic tour by Visit Miskolc, you won't just observe the world of theatre from the auditorium – we’ll step behind the scenes.
The programme starts at Déryné's former house, the legendary actress whose name is forever intertwined with the history of theatre in Miskolc. From there, we’ll walk through the city centre, bringing theatrical stories, artistic lives, and urban legends to life.
At the end of the tour, we’ll arrive at the 203-year-old Miskolc National Theatre, where a unique experience awaits:
- a glimpse behind the scenes
- exploration of the theatre's hidden spaces
- a 15-minute mini performance
- a visit to the Actor's Museum, where memories of legendary artists await
- and for those who wish, the chance to don a costume and step onto the stage for a special selfie
This tour is more than sightseeing.
It’s a meeting with the theatrical soul of Miskolc.
The number of participants is limited, so early registration is recommended.
Programme time: 14:00
Duration: approximately 3 hours
Participants of the tour also have the opportunity to complete their behind-the-scenes experience with an evening performance at the Miskolc National Theatre on the same day.
The theatre's performances are usually very popular, and tickets often sell out weeks in advance.
If you wish to combine the tour with a theatre evening, we recommend purchasing tickets in advance online via the theatre's official ticket purchasing platform.
The thematic tour will only take place with a minimum of 10 paying participants. If the experience programme is cancelled due to insufficient numbers, this will not affect the theatre performance, which will still go ahead. Therefore, we are unable to refund the cost of any theatre tickets purchased.
