De Woeker, Oudenaarde
The theatre in Oudenaarde is being expanded into a vibrant cultural site. The existing auditorium is being renovated to become a multifunctional space, and a new large theatre auditorium will be added. Through this expansion, the meeting and rehearsal rooms of the former fire station and the former municipal school will be combined into an attractive cultural venue. The protected townscape will add another jewel to its crown.
