The National Theatre in Brno (Czech: Národní divadlo v Brně) is the major theatre house in Brno. It was established in 1884 by model of the National Theatre in Prague.

Nowadays it consists of three stages:

  • Mahen Theatre; (drama) - originally German-language Theatre On the Walls (construction finished in 1882), the first theatre building on the Continent with electric lighting (projected by Thomas Alva Edison himself)
  • Janáček Theatre; (opera, ballet), modern building from 1961–1965. Zdenĕk Neverla was appointed general director of the Janáček Opera House in 1990.[1]
  • Reduta Theatre; the oldest theatre house in the Central Europe, recently reconstructed; in December 1767 the twelve year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart gave a concert there
