General Info

The National Theater in Vienna, Austria, is full of magnificent traditions of the Germanic lands. The Burgtheater, as it is called by locals, has a very classical design to it, and has a lot of influence with the development of German stage work. This is one of the places that is considered a high point in the artistic careers of actors and actresses. The theater was built in 1741. It was later used as a court theater in 1776 by Emperor Joseph II, and was later called the Court and National Theater. A second theater was built in 1888 on the Ring to be home to designs by Hasenauer and Semper, and the National Theater was moved to it. The original Burgtheater was mostly destroyed by bombings in World War II and a month later it caught fire, in which the auditorium was destroyed. However, it was reopened in 1955, and presently can seat 1285.

Three of Mozart's operas premiered at the National Theater in Vienna: Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail, Le nozze di Figaro, and Cosi fan tutte. Other German language theaters use the Burgtheater style as a guide. If you are staying in Vienna, then visting the National Theater should be on your list of things to do. There are several hotels in the area if you plan on having an extended stay.
