Christiane Magdalena Elisabeth Haßloch

Christiane Haßloch ( Keilholz; 16 July 1764 – 23 August 1829) was a German stage actress and coloratura soprano opera singer.

Life Christiane Magdalena Elisabeth Keilholz was born in Pirna. Her father was the actor Philipp Christian Keilholz (1735–1800).

By May 1790, she had left Bonn and joined the Mannheim National Theatre where she made her debut as Constanze, the lead role in Mozart's opera, Die Entführung aus dem Serail. She remained at Mannheim until April 1792, when she moved to Amsterdam to undertake some engagements at the German Theatre.

Between 1795 and 1804, she worked with her husband in Kassel. They went on a tour of Germany, after which, in 1809, she withdrew completely from theatre work for a year. She then moved to the newly created Darmstadt Theatre, where she worked as a singer and actress and was appointed Court Actress . She withdrew to private life, this time permanently, in 1818. She died there in 1829, aged 65.
