The Semperoper is the opera house of the Saxon State Opera (Sächsische Staatsoper Dresden) and the concert hall of the Saxon State Orchestra (Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden). It is also home to the Semperoper ballet. The building is located in the historic centre of Dresden, Germany, near the Elbe River.
The opera house was originally built by the architect Gottfried Semper in 1841. After a devastating fire in 1869, the opera house was rebuilt, partly again by Semper, and completed in 1878.
The Semperoper was again destroyed during the infamous bombing in 1945, and was rebuilt in 1985. It opened exactly 40 years after the bombing on 13 February with the same opera that was last performed before its destruction, Der Freischütz by Carl Maria von Weber.
