Prague's oldest functioning theatre and a neoclassical gem on Ovocný trh, commissioned in 1783 by Count Nostitz. It holds an immortal place in music history as the venue where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart conducted the triumphant world premiere of Don Giovanni in 1787 and La clemenza di Tito in 1791. Its intimate turquoise-and-gold auditorium preserves genuine 18th-century grandeur and stages world-class opera and drama.
