The collection of the theater museum, founded during the Weimar Republic in 1927, was created by Kurt Söhnlein . In the following year, 1928, the exhibits were housed in the opera house. They were largely lost during the air raids on Hanover in World War II .

In the post-war period , Kurt Söhn rebuilt the collection of the theater museum.

In 1988, the set designer Rudolf Schulz set up the collection in the Kröpcke Center , which opened there on May 8th of that year.

In 1993 the expanded theater museum opened with access from the theater on Prinzenstrasse.

In 2008 the theater museum commissioned the photographer Dirk Meußling to take large-format portraits of well-known writers.
