history

The Teutonic Order in Lengmoos (2017)

The Renon was already a popular destination for the annual summer retreat among the Bolzano citizens around 300 years ago . For their entertainment, they not only held musical evenings and shooting competitions, but also theatrical performances. This tradition was taken up again in 1973 when the journalist Inga Hosp and her husband, who later became the South Tyrolean cultural councilor Bruno Hosp , founded the Renon Summer Games together with the folk actors Peter Mitterrutzner and Sepp Frötscher.

In 2012 the Rittner Sommerspiele celebrated its 40th anniversary with the Shakespeare playWas ihr wollt ”, staged by Oliver Karbus .
