Om

Raske fakta: Operaen ble bygget på 3 år og kunne ta imot 700 tilskuere samtidig. Den opprinnelige belysningen var kun stearinlys, noe som skapte en spesiell stemning under alle forestillinger.

Høydepunkter: Salen er laget 100% i tre for å sikre perfekt akustikk. Kronelyset og flere hundre speil hadde til sammen 1400 lys, noe som skapte en utrolig lysforestilling.

Insidertips

Bring comfortable shoes, because the creaking of the floor gives a special acoustic experience.
The spatial acoustics are best enjoyed from the front rows.
Avoid the weekends, when there may be crowds; instead, visit on weekdays.
Do not forget to take photos near the chandelier and the mirror walls; the play of light is stunning.
