Łaźnia Nowa Theatre

Łaźnia Nowa Theatre is the newest dramatic theatre in Kraków, Poland, founded in 2005. It is located in the district of Nowa Huta which was built from the ground up during the 1950s' Communist policy of Socialist realism. Appropriately, the theatre is residing in the post-industrial halls of a former technical school.Łaźnia Nowa Theatre was preceded by Łaźnia Theatre, located in Kazimierz. The theatre was originally located in a cellar which used to serve as a Jewish mikvah, hence the name łaźnia. After the theatre was moved to the district of Nowa Huta, the word Nowa was added to its name.
