Alte Oper

The Alte Oper is a theater in central Frankfurt designed with neoclassical features including tall columns, ornate sculptures, and a prominent entrance staircase. Inside, the main hall provides seating for performances with contemporary stage equipment and facilities for guests.

Construction took place from 1873 to 1880, making it a major cultural landmark in Frankfurt for many years. Severe bombing damage during the Second World War required extensive reconstruction, which was finally completed in 1981.

This is where Frankfurt's love of music comes to life through performances that bring people together. Visitors experience everything from classical symphonies to jazz and contemporary works in a space that has hosted countless performances.

Elevators and ramps throughout the building provide access for people with mobility challenges to reach all performance areas. Clear signage at entrances helps visitors navigate the space easily.

Three restaurants and cafes operate within the building, where visitors gather before and after performances. These dining spaces have become an integral part of the venue experience.
