Teatro Malibran, Opera house in Venice, Italy
The theater features five levels of boxes, a vast stalls area, and an enlarged orchestra pit designed for superior acoustics.
Inaugurated in 1678 as Teatro San Giovanni Grisostomo, the theater gained recognition as one of the largest performance venues in Venice.
The theater changed its name to Teatro Malibran in 1835 after Spanish mezzo-soprano Maria Malibran performed and refused payment for her performance.
Located near Campo dei Santi Giovanni e Paolo, the theater offers regular opera performances and serves as an additional venue for Teatro La Fenice productions.
The building stands on the former residence site of explorer Marco Polo and includes an underground basin system for flood prevention.
