A very beautiful opera building, but a bit in black tones; there's the exact same building but lighter in Odesa, Ukraine - it looks much nicer. But it's a very beautiful building too, unfortunately I couldn't go to the concert.

(Translated by Google) Cool place! (Original) Классное место!

(Translated by Google) Should you have seen! (Original) Sollte man mal gesehen haben!

It is a magnificent opera house with beautiful architecture. In the summer, they don't have a lot of concerts or events, so we didn't go inside this time. However, we have seen some ballet and Staatskapelle performances before, and they were truly impressive.

This place is a must see of if you don't see an opera or show. It's exquisite on the inside and you get a tour and the history of it you do need to book time slots due to the tours being available in different languages.

(Translated by Google) Until a few years ago I sang in the children's choir of the Semperoper. Apart from the rear annex, the Semperoper is, in my opinion, the most beautiful building Dresden has to offer. Simply magical :) (Original) Habe bis vor einigen Jahren im Kinderchor der Semperoper gesungen. Mal vom hinteren Anbau abgesehen ist die Semperoper meiner Meinung nach das schönste Gebäude was Dresden zu bieten hat. Einfach Magisch :)

One of the three great opera houses in the world. If you come to Dresden, do everything possible to see an actual opera here. For us it was a wonderful event, musically and artistically beautiful!

👌👍🎭🏛🕍

A wonderful tour about the opera, telling about it's heartbreaking history and faithful people who kept rebuilding it despite all the obstacles. And opera interior is absolutely astonishing! Truly worth visiting! (Unfortunately, didn't attend an actual performance)

(Translated by Google) It's perfectly alright (Original) Ganz Ok

(Translated by Google) Nice historical place. We went to a ballet performance in October 20. That was really nice. Corona measures well followed. Gladly again (Original) Schöner historischer Ort.

(Translated by Google) Semper Opera is the concert hall of the Dresden State Company Orchestra. Its designation is due to the name of the architect Gottfried Semper that built it in the year 1841. His style features a combination of Renaissance influences, baroque and even Corinthian that can be seen in its columns. The building suffered several very profound damages over its years. years of existence. After a violent fire, bombings in World War II, it was being rebuilt and the current version dating from 1981, constitutes a good example of the Baroque architecture of the city of Dresden. The Semper Opera House, is a hall of reference among Opera theaters in Europe, in particular, its excellent acoustics. Its location in the historic center of Desdren, next to the river Elbe it gives you a framework of great beauty.

(Translated by Google) Really great, has to be seen. (Original) Wirklich toll, muss man gesehen haben.

(Translated by Google) A penalties fine (Original) 오폐라 벌금

We saw a performance at the opera. The place is full of atmosphere. From the upper floors it was hard to see the show without sitting in an unpleasant way. Great acoustics. experience.

Easy get in, lots of staff to guide you to your seats. We had a great time listening to Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden conducted by Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla.

Beautiful opera house! The building is beautifully done inside, wonderful interior. Only deducted 1 point because the staff at the bar/snack point was quite unfriendly.

This opera house is like concentrated essence of Dresden. There's endless gilt and ceiling paintings and they have a big tassel budget. Operas have surtitles in German and English, the seats are comfortable and sightlines are good. The only slight criticism is that they don't do halftime ice-cream. I feel a little sugar rush is what you need in the interval instead of booze.

(Translated by Google) Great great beautiful beautiful opera house. (Original) Tolles tolles schönes schönes Opernhaus.

Gorgeous building! Visiting here is a must if you are in Dresden. I am sure it would be amazing to see a show here. I recommend going on a guided tour at night. The only disappointing thing is the tour is advertised as "Behind the curtains" but you do not go backstage and cannot even see the stage due to a huge fire-safety door.

Amazing building, restored to its former glory after WWII. You have to book a tour, some are in English but there is not an English tour everyday. The cost was €14 (Feb 24), you can book online.

My first time in opera and experience was amazing. The building itself is a work of art, the acoustic was extremely good the seats comfortable the ladies at the gardarobe were kind and helpful. Even though we were late they let us in on se second act and we watched from a television the first part of the play

We went to see Hänsel and Gretel …. Very interesting play. A bit new age I wished the focus would have been more on the witch rather the parents and didn’t get what the 7 dwarfs and snowhite plus other fairytale Charakters Place was but overall I loved it. It’s one of the most famous operas and yes they had English and German titles playing . I didn’t need it but very helpful ! Loved it.

Interesting opera with history. I recommend the tour.

(Translated by Google) A really impressive building. Unfortunately no viewing was possible. (Original) Ein wirklich beeindruckenes Gebäude. Leider war keine Besichtigung möglich.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful object, it was damaged many times. If not a fire, it is bombed again. And lest the disasters end, in 2002 the nearby Elbe River flooded the Semperoper building and caused damage amounting to an enormous amount of EUR 28 million (ojro) ... (Original) Piękny obiekt , wielokrotnie ulegał zniszczeniu . Jak nie pożar to znowu zbombardowany . A żeby klęskom nie był koniec to w 2002 roku pobliska rzeka Łaba zalała budynek Semperoper i wyrządziła szkody na olbrzymią kwotę 28 mln euro ( ojro ) ...

It was truly amazing.

Beautiful design 👌

Just seen the performance of the rarely played 'The Nose' by Shostakovich. Superb performance and incredibly creative mise-en-scene.

(Translated by Google) The opera is a remarkable building! However, we had concerns about visiting it from the inside due to the corona, some people were already there. I think the entrance fee would have been € 11 per adult, but definitely € 3 if you want to take photos inside with your mobile phone (Original) Die Oper ist ein bemerkenswertes Gebäude! Wir hatten jedoch Coronabedingt Bedenken es auch von innen zu besichtigen, waren schon einige Leute vor Ort. Eintritt wären glaube ich 11€ pro Erwachsenem gewesen, auf jeden Fall jedoch 3€ wenn man drinnen mit dem Handy Fotos machen möchte

(Translated by Google) The wonderful opera house in Dresden In Dresden, such as Palace Church, Zbunger, Dresden Castle, etc. Many very important buildings (Original) 드레스덴의 오페라하우스 멋짐 주위에 궁전교회, 츠뷩거, 드레스덴캐슬 등 드레스덴에서 매우 중요한 건물들이 많음

We saw a symphony concert here last week and it was wonderful! Very powerful and moving. Live music played well in this setting was so inspiring! We were so glad to be able to see a live performance in the Semper Opera House while visiting Dresden. It made the visit feel more complete!

We tool the highlight tour which was fine. Glad we did it. Dont know why online booking is still necessary, without covid. Could be easier.

Very beautiful place. Reminds me opera house in Odessa, Ukraine :) FYI: The Odessa National Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet is the oldest opera house in Ukraine and the best theater in the country at the time of opening. A modern building was built in 1887 (previous was destroyed by fire) by Viennese architects Fellner and Helmer, who also built theaters in Vienna, Budapest, Salzburg and other European cities. Dresden Opera, which was built four years earlier became the model for Odessa Theater.

Magnificent, whilst not going there for an performance, but rather the tour. I was amazed with the history and information the guide provided. Maybe next time in Dresden I'll go for a performance. Such a beautiful building thank god the DDR regime allowed it to be rebuilt to it's original form

Everything is easy, ticketing is good and seats are easy to find. The seats are not comfortable but you can endure for two hours. We have a good view of the performances, which means if you want to know everything that's going on, you'll have to pay more for a ticket. You have to be very fast for WC especially in pause. The building is wonderful but not as I expected. The exterior of the building is more magnificent.

The Semperoper is the opera house of the Sächsische Staatsoper Dresden and the concert hall of the Staatskapelle Dresden . It is also home to the Semperoper Ballett. The building is located on the Theaterplatz near the Elbe River in the historic centre of Dresden, Germany.

Magnificent Opera/Ballet Hall located on the Theaterplatz near the Elbe River in the historic centre of Dresden, Germany. It is recommended to book tickets in advance if you wish to attend any of the fantastic shows that take place here.

We did a guided tour in english with Paula Lange. She was fantastic!! Make sure you buy the photo license from the main cash desk before your tour! Paula gave us A lot of info about the building of the theatre. And we got to sit in the theatre and watch the stage hands work - it depends what time of day but you might see a rehearsal, or learn special things about the backstage. The building is gorgeous! rebuilt after the 2nd world war so most is not original, but it doesn’t take away from the beauty at all!

The opera house of the Semperoper Saxony Dresden State Opera, the concert hall of the Saxon State Orchestra Dresden. Built in 1841 by the architect Gottfried Semper, Semperoper carries the traces of the Early Renaissance, Baroque and Classical Greek Style in its architecture.

Operahouse in Dresden. You can visit with guided tours or visiting concert or opera. There will be a lo guided tours in english, in German. But you need to buy it advance. Tour itslef was great, there is information, was introduced rooms. Big house but for me was too short.

This building is home to the Saxony State Orchestra. The original building dates from 1841. It can be reached in about 20 minutes if you walk from the Main Train Station.

I love the Semperoper. I have been lucky enough to come to Dresden many times, and a highlight of the trip is always a performance or two or three at the worlds most beautiful opera house.

Currently No. 1 on my list among the most aesthetic buildings I've ever seen & visited. 🥇 Only had time to walk on the outside and take photos, but definitely take your time with it. 📸 A wonderful gem of Dresden city. ⚜

Who am I to give one of the best opera houses in the world a review???

Great historic building (restored). Taken as a musical whole, (conductor, orchestra, singers) this was the best "Figaro" I've seen. The Count was wonderful. Won the "Song Prize" on Cardiff Singer of the World, 2011. So glad I was there to back him.

Great place, stunning interior, the music was so enjoyable. Highly recommended. 👍🏽

Visited on 6 Jun 2022, impressive opera house with very detailed saxon design

Great experience, don't miss it! We went to a classical concert: superb orchestra, attentive audience, very professional conductor, impressive ambience...All in all: what a delight!

Those two pics are 2h apart on the same July day by the same iPhone :) crazy how weather can change the perception. Very nice building.

The least you feel is pride! Beautiful building!

Πανέμορφο κτήριο!

(Translated by Google) Cancellation of performances: reimbursement is unfortunately made without the "system fee" of € 4 per ticket. With several tickets for several canceled performances, there is a lot of loss. Strictly speaking, you pay for a service that has not been performed. If you reclaim your money using the online form, you will not receive any information on the website or by email that it has worked after submitting it. Annoying, unprofessional and not customer friendly. UPDATE: You refund did not work after 6 weeks. I was advised by phone to send my bank details by email. Extremely insecure and can not only repeat EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL !!! (Original) Absage von Vorstellungen: Rückerstattung erfolgt leider ohne der "Systemgebühr" von 4€ pro Karte. Bei mehreren Karten für mehrere abgesagte Vorstellungen kommt da einiges an Verlust zusammen. Genau genommen bezahlt man für eine nicht erbrachte Leistung. Fordert man sein Geld per online Formular zurück, erhält man nach dem Absenden weder auf der Internetseite noch per Mail eine Information, dass es funktioniert hat. Ärgerlich, unprofessionell und nicht kundenfreundlich. UPDATE: Dir Rückerstattung hat nach 6 Wochen nicht funktioniert. Man hat mir telefonisch geraten meine Bankdaten per Mail zu senden. Extrem unsicher und kann nicht nur wiederholen EXTREM UNPROFESSIONELL!!!

Great!

Regardless of whether a visit to the opera or a guided tour, it is definitely worth it. (Original) Ich hatte im Juli an einer Führung durch die Semperoper teilgenommen.

(Original) Muss man gesehen haben - von innen und außen. Mit ein bisschen Glück gibt es kurzfristig noch Karten für "billige" Plätze.

Very nice building and an amazing performance. We bought the tickets couple months ahead online, which worked out very well. The acoustics of the theater were very good. Washrooms were as accessible. Unfortunately we did not manage to get something to drink due to the long queues before and during the performance. They should definitely stop the espresso machine, it took so long and that’s why we could get a drink. Next time I’ll take something with me I guess.

Dresden’s Semperoper, part of the Zwinger complex, is the most famous opera house in Germany and one of Europe’s most historic and renowned centres of music. It was closed during World War II, in August 1944, and six months later destroyed by the Allied air attacks. Its reconstruction took a long time, almost 40 years. Tip: Photos are stunning at night time.

Excellent sound, covid friendly seating. Great Production.

Wonderful place to visit, inside was luxurious with a fully of detail. Outside is great and romantic place. The house was made by detail of considering for everything to make a sound more nice. I can sure everyone will feel sense of love in here.

Although I was not inside, I viewed the opera well enough from outside to give myself an opportunity for rating. It is magnificent and beautiful architecture achievement. This opera is not so full of different decorative details as the one in my hometown, although they were built by the same author, but this building looks no less beautiful and impressively with its solidity and grandeur.

The building is considered to be a prime example of "Dresden Baroque" architecture. It is situated on the Theatre Square in central Dresden on the bank of the Elbe River. On top of the portal there is a Panther quadriga with a statue of Dionysos. The interior was created by architects of the time, such as Johannes Schilling. Monuments on the portal depict artists, such as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Friedrich Schiller, William Shakespeare, Sophocles, Molière and Euripides. The building also features work by Ernst Rietschel and Ernst Julius Hähnel. In the pre-war years, the Semperoper premiered many of the works of Richard Strauss. In 1945, during the last months of World War II, the building was largely destroyed again, this time by the bombing of Dresden and subsequent firestorm, leaving only the exterior shell standing. Exactly 40 years later, on 13 February 1985, the opera's reconstruction was completed. It was rebuilt to be almost identical to its appearance before the war, but with the benefit of new stage machinery and an accompanying modern rear service building. The Semperoper reopened with the opera that was performed just before the building's destruction in 1945, Carl Maria von Weber's Der Freischütz. When the Elbe flooded in 2002, the building suffered heavy water damage. With substantial help from around the world, it reopened in December of that year.

A beautiful building on "Theaterplatz" in the historic old town of Dresden. We did not visit it from the inside.

Amazing place. Nice views. Big and clean. More beautiful at night.

(Translated by Google) Classic beautiful building. It is a pity that I did not manage to get into the opera. (Original) Классическое красивое здание. Жаль, что не удалось попасть в оперу.

Ein Mega-Tolles- Fantastisches- Bauwerk... jeder der sich in der Nähe der Semperoper befindet sollte sich auch die komplette Dresdner Altstadt ansehen... 👍Sie ist definitiv einen Besuch wert👍

Amazing old Stadt of Dresden. A must visit place for every tourist.

A must see in the antique heart of Dresden. A beautiful concert hall which obviously looks stunning but also has amazing concerts and musicals. Just go there if you are in Dresden.

It deserves more than 5 stars as beautiful as it is. With the snow is even better and I was so lucky to visit Dresden during winter time. You can see in my pictures that amazing historical Monument. I appreciate everything here. Thanks

(Translated by Google) If you visit Dresden, please make sure to at least take a guided tour! (Original) Wenn man Dresden besucht, dann bitte gehen Sie unbedingt zumindest in eine Führung hinein!

Before the pandemic this was a great cultural experience in Dresden. For students in winter 2020, they had a deal to pay a reduced cost to see 4 shows. You can pick up the tickets at the box office and decide the showtimes and seating. It is formal attire preferred based on the shows I saw back in 2019-2020. Not sure when these activities will resume. When it does, I recommend going early to see the opera house itself, it's beautiful. If you do get bundled tickets, switch it up -- try viewing the performances from the balcony, floor and different seating areas. It was a great way to really take in the venue.

(Translated by Google) Very good performance and great atmosphere! (Original) Sehr gute Vorstellung und tolles Ambiente!

(Translated by Google) The tour of the opera was very interesting and informative. The young woman was very pleasant and brought everything over very well.

(Translated by Google) Except for the scaffolding, a really fantastic building. As a photographer, however, it was relatively easy to mirror the sides so that the scaffolding was ultimately no longer visible. I'm curious to see how it will look there in a few years, when the construction work is completed (Original) Bis auf die Baugerüste ein wirklich fantastisches Gebäude. Als Fotograf war es aber relativ leicht die Seiten zu spiegeln, so dass das Gerüst letztendlich nicht mehr sichtbar war.
