Opéra national de Bordeaux
13 place de la comédie, 33000 Bordeaux

- Nouvelle-Aquitaine
Inaugurated on April 7, 1780, the Grand-Théâtre de Bordeaux writes its history to the rhythm of the events that punctuate its existence. Victor Louis is the architect of the building still renowned today as one of the most beautiful theatres in the world. The exceptional acoustics due to the wooden frame that envelops it add to the aesthetic value of the work.
On its façade, 12 Corinthian columns. At the top, 9 muses and 3 goddesses of ancient mythology, imagined by Pierre Berruer, set the horizon. Almost a century later, the grand staircase inspired Charles Garnier to draw the Paris Opera.
Today, under the direction of Emmanuel Hondré, the Opéra National de Bordeaux manages this stage and offers a large part of its programming.
