The Nuremberg State Theater is falling to pieces and must close for renovation by 2025.

There’s a plan to build a temporary opera house.

Using an unfinished congress hall that was being built for future Nazi rallies.

It was meant to accommodate 50,000 people. The shell of the building, 38 meters high, is used for educational purposes to demonstrate Hitler’s megalomania.

A suitable venue for opera?
