Margravial Opera House

From the outside you could mistake it for any other old tenement house. Inside it's the most impressive opera I have ever seen, worthy of UNESCO title for sure. The visit to the Opera is limited to ground floor seats and a view from one of the lounges (unless you go with the guide) after that it's a modern museum, which is also quite interesting and has a miniature scene with which you can play. You can't bring any bags even the smallest ones, cabinets are downstairs for 1euro you get back. I wish someday to visit a play here since it has to be magical.

The entry ticket was 10€, but IT'S ALL WORTH IT! The Stage was just beautiful, it's like stepping into the past and it makes you wonder how ugly Art in our present day has become.

What a great visit, we had a English tour with Johan she was so helpful, informative and very funny with great anecdotes =) It was a wonderful visit and beautiful Opera hall and historical experience to learn and experience Bayreut =) Highly recommend the visit and tour =)

Beautiful opera house and super interesting museum. Kids (10,7,5) loved it. There is a special riddle game for kids to and some interactive pieces in the museum - we spent over 2 hours there.

Beautiful! Beautiful and again Beautiful place! Very affordable, interesting exposition about history of the theater. Really worth visiting. There is WC (you don't have to buy ticket for that). Note, that you can't go with your backpack and it has to be stored so keep 1 euro coin to lock the locker

Beautiful Barock style opera house with interesting museum

We visited Bayreuth Opera House with friends from Italy, full of excitement to see this UNESCO World Heritage site. The historical and artistic value of this cultural landmark is very important to us. Unfortunately, our experience was quite negative. While tour groups accompanied by guides were allowed to freely go upstairs and sit in the seats, we – as independent visitors – were repeatedly warned by staff at every step. Even though we did not break any rules, one staff member in particular kept telling us “don’t touch” in an insistent manner, which felt both unnecessary and discriminatory. At the same time, other tourists in the same areas received no such warnings, making it clear that we were treated unequally. We shared our concerns with the staff at the entrance, not only for our own sake but also as important feedback to help improve the visitor experience for such a significant cultural heritage site. Unfortunately, our complaint did not seem to be taken seriously. This attitude is unworthy of such a valuable cultural monument and its visitors. I felt disrespected and singled out, and it ruined the enjoyment of our visit. I sincerely hope that this kind of discriminatory treatment will end, and that all visitors will be treated equally and respectfully.

Beautiful place, and our English language tour guide was a very nice young man.
