Staatsoper Unter den Linden
The Staatsoper Unter den Linden – the dream of Frederick the Great come true – has been exemplary for outstanding musical theatre for the past 275 years.

It was in this gathering that the foundations were laid for an association dedicated to supporting the world-famous Opera House.
