Wrocław Opera

The opera Breslau (Polish: Opera Wrocławska ) is an institution that plays operas in the former Breslau Stadttheater.

Building

The building of the Municipal Theatre in Wroclaw replaced in 1841 a considerably smaller and at that time already very run-down theater by Carl Gotthard Langhans from 1782. The new building on the prestigious Schweidnitzer road was planned by his son, the architect Carl Ferdinand Langhans.

The house was substantially rebuilt after two fires in 1865 and 1871 by Carl Johann Liidecke respectively. Karl Schmidt, but not destroyed during the two world wars. The stage was extended 1954-1956 according to the plans of Andrzej Frydecki to the castle square, with continuation of the classical - eclectic façade. The flooding of the Oder (and the neighboring city moat ) in 1997 caused severe damages in the renovation completed in 2005 and fire restoration eliminated.

On September 8, 1945, the game operation of the Polish Opera in Wrocław was recorded with the premiere of Halka by Stanislaw Moniuszko (director Stanislaw Drabik ).
