The Halle Opera House (German : Opernhaus Halle) is an opera house located in Halle, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany.
Originally named the Halle Town Theatre (German : Stadttheater von Halle), the theatre building was constructed in 1886 by architect Heinrich Seeling.
On 31 March, 1945, a bomb attack destroyed much of the original building. [1] Restoration work began a few years later, and the theatre reopened in 1951 under the name Landestheater Halle. In January 1992, it was renamed to its current title. [1]
Today, the Halle Opera House hosts performances of opera, ballet, and orchestral concerts. It also serves as the main performance venue for the annual summer Handel Festival held in the city.
