Feddersen as "Landestheater Süd-Ostpreußen 'Der Treudank'". Funded by Germans to honour the local citizens who opted for Olsztyn/Allenstein remaining a part of Germany in a 1920 plebiscite, hence the name meaning 'The Thank You for Fidelity'. 1925-1945 used for German theatre performances. Severely damaged during World War II. Re-opened 17 Nov 1945 as a Polish theatre with Gabriela Zapolska's "Moralnosść pani Dulskiej". Renamed "Teatr im.
