The famous Vienna State Opera

Guided tours and performances in the first house on the Viennese Ring

The Vienna State Opera is the most important opera house in Vienna and one of the most famous in the world. Experience the impressive opera during a performance or take a look behind the scenes on a guided tour.

The Vienna State Opera was built more than 140 years ago. The historic façades on Vienna's Ringstrasse in the Renaissance arch style have been preserved to this day and can be admired superbly from the Opernring. But the Vienna State Opera is also convincing because of what takes place on the stages inside the beautiful building: Concerts, operas, balls and more.
