Hungarian State Opera House, Budapest Overview

The Hungarian State Opera House in Budapest is the largest theatre in Hungary and is known for its spectacular acoustics and beautiful architecture. Baroque elements are arranged in a U-shape in the main hall, with paintings and sculptures from Hungary's ancient past.

Designed in the late 18th century by Miklos Ybl, it is among the most outstanding examples of Hungarian architecture. Founded in 1875, the Hungarian State Opera House has a history of 300 years and offers visitors some of the best arts in the world in one place. A visit to the grand opera house auditorium is worth it because of a huge bronze chandelier and some symbolic sculptures that describe the prominent operatic voices, such as alto, tenor, bass, and soprano. Hungarian State Opera's main stage holds major performances in Budapest's Opera House with its 1,260 seats and organizes around 200 operas a year, apart from some musical theatre performances and ballet.
