Vienna State Opera

The tour of this amazing building was a highlight of our short time in Vienna, Austria. The Vienna State Opera House was built between 1861 and 1869. It was damaged by bombing in WWII but was restored to its former glory after the war. The main auditorium seats 1,709. The many other rooms in the building are all beautiful. This is the fresco on the ceiling in the entry hall titled "The Recognition" by the Viennese painter Franz Dobyaschofsky
