Staatsoper Unter den Linden

Berlin’s opulent state opera was commissioned as the royal opera house by Frederick the Great and designed by his friend and master architect Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff. It has graced Bebelplatz since 1742 and risen from the ashes three times. After completion of an extensive refurbishment, it's been staging grand operas under the direction of Daniel Barenboim since October 2017.
