The Slovak National Theater is comprised of both the modern opera hall located next to the Danube River, which opened in 2007, and the Neo-Renaissance opera house located on the city’s Hviezdoslav Square. These two theater venues are owned and operated by the same institution, and both halls host theater, ballet, and opera performances throughout the year. The newer theater has more superlative acoustics, a larger audience capacity, and extra leg-room. The old opera hall, however, boasts resplendent architecture from the 1890’s. The facade features a sculpture of Thalia, the muse, and an elegant fountain is in front.
