Großes Haus Stuttgart
The Staatstheater Stuttgart (State Theatre Stuttgart) is an opera house in Stuttgart, Germany. It features ballet, opera and theater performances and is the largest of its kind in Europe (1400 seats). It is also known locally as the "Großes Haus" (Big House), having been the larger of two theatres of the former Royal Theatre.
Designed by the noted Munich architect, Max Littmann, who won a competition to create new royal theatres, it was constructed between 1909 and 1912 as the Königliche Hoftheater, a royal theatre of the Kingdom of Württemberg with a "Großes Haus" and a "Kleines Haus".The Small House was destroyed by bombing during the Second World War and, today, the site is occupied by a new "Kleines Haus", which opened in 1962. It's on the left side - you can't see it in this photo.
