About Bavarian State Opera

The Bavarian State Opera, in German the Bayerische Staatsoper, is considered the oldest opera company. The opera house is based in Munich, Germany, and home to the Bavarian State Orchestra.

Bavarian State Opera History

The Bavarian State Opera was founded in 1653 by the Electress consort Princess Adelaide of Savoy. Operas were held in the Residence Theatre beginning in 1753 as well as the Prinzeregententheatre since 1901. In 1875, the Munich Opera Festival was inaugurated which is managed by the company and features performances by the Bavarian State Orchestra.

The National Theatre is the largest opera house in Germany with 2,101 seats. Originally created in 1751, a large fire destroyed the theatre in 1825 followed by further destruction during World War II. It reopened again in 1963 and has remained the same ever since.
