Opéra national de Lorraine, Opera house in Place Stanislas, Nancy, France.

The Opera National de Lorraine features a Neoclassical facade with symmetrical columns, balanced proportions, and decorative stone elements across its exterior walls.

The current structure, inaugurated in 1919, replaced the original 1758 theater that burned down in 1905, maintaining its position at the heart of Nancy.

The opera house presents classical performances throughout the season with accompaniment from the Symphony Orchestra of Nancy for all productions.

The building combines classical architectural elements with Art Nouveau details, reflecting the influence of the Nancy School of Architecture.
