Berlin State Opera, Opera house on Unter den Linden, Berlin, Germany
The Berlin State Opera features a grand neoclassical facade with columns and ornate architectural details along the historic Unter den Linden boulevard.
King Frederick the Great commissioned architect Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff to design this Palladian-style opera house, which opened its doors in 1742.
The opera house presents over 200 performances annually, ranging from classical masterpieces to contemporary productions by international artists and composers.
