| The Vienna State Opera Wiener Staatsoper, the 1,709-seat Renaissance Revival venue was the first major building on the Vienna Ring Road. It was built from 1861 to 1869 following plans by August Sicard von Sicardsburg and Eduard van der Nüll, and designs by Josef Hlávka. The Vienna State Opera Wiener Staatsoper was inaugurated as the `Vienna Court Opera` Wiener Hofoper in the presence of Emperor Franz Joseph I and Empress Elisabeth of Austria. It became known by its current name after the establishment of the First Austrian Republic in 1921. |
