Oper Burg Gars. Waldviertel Opera House

The unique atmosphere of the thousand-year-old Babenberg Castle in Gars / Thunau and the unique acoustics that allow opera to be played here without any reinforcement from singers or orchestra make up the magic of this exquisite venue.

Against the backdrop of the castle's former commercial wing, the audience can enjoy a wonderful musical and theatrical experience in each of the 1,250 seats in the grandstand. This open-air opera house impresses its guests with its very special charm.

This potential was already recognized at the end of the 1980s, and in 1990 the first major opera production was realized in Burg Gars. From then on, under the direction of the director and manager Karel Drgáč, the opera was performed every summer under the name “Opern-Air” in Gars Castle.
