Teatr Wielki Poznań, Poznań (PL) stages Mozart's Die Zauberflöte: 4 performances between 2026-11-18 and 2026-11-22.
The opera house in Poznań opened in 1910 as the German Stadttheater, built while the city was under Prussian rule. Its architect was Max Littmann of Munich, who gave it a neoclassical facade with a six-column portico, a line from Schiller in the tympanum and a stone Pegasus perched on the roof, still the theatre's emblem today. Littmann also broke with tradition inside, designing a democratic auditorium without private boxes. The inaugural production in 1910 was Mozart's Die Zauberflöte.
When Poland regained independence, the house reopened as a Polish stage on 31 August 1919 with Moniuszko's Halka, and it later took the name of Stanisław Moniuszko, the father of Polish national opera. Poznań audiences still speak of it as the stage beneath the Pegasus. Today the Teatr Wielki ranks among Poland's leading opera companies, and the work that opened the building more than a century ago keeps finding its way back onto the playbill.
