The Great Theater of Bordeaux
This majestic building, located in the centre of Bordeaux, was designed in the 18th century by the architect Victor Louis and inaugurated in 1780. It stands on the site of the former temple of the Pillars of Trustees which once lined the ancient Gallo-Roman forum.
In neo-classical style, this magnificent Italian-style theatre is one of the oldest in Europe. Its large dome ensures perfect acoustics and its painted fresco on the ceiling is worth a look.
For nearly three centuries, it has been the symbol of Bordeaux culture: music, opera, classical ballet and contemporary dance, its programming is rich and varied. Its dance company and its national orchestra are renowned throughout the world.
