New City: State Opera : The Michelin guide review

The Czechs set up a public fund, the Germanophile bourgeoisie financed the construction of an opera house that was a smaller reproduction of the one in Vienna. They handed its design to two Viennese architects - Helmer and Fellner. In 1888, the neo-Rococo theatre hidden by its neo-Classical facade opened for its first performances.
