Located on the “Plaza de Oriente” and facing towards the Royal Palace in Madrid, Spain, one finds the Royal Theater. This structure, which was eventually converted into the Opera House, was built in the 19th century in the style of neoclassicism and eclecticism. Structural problems forced its closure between the years 1925 to 1966.
It served as a symphonic concert hall until a remodeling was completed in 1997, which turned it from a theater to a stage for operatic performances.
