The Großes Festspielhaus was designed by the architect Clemens Holzmeister. Work began in 1956, when 55,000 cubic meters of stone were blasted from the side of the Mönchsberg mountain to make room for the enormous backstage area. At 100 metres wide it is one of the largest stages in the world. The hall was opened on 26 July 1960 with a ceremony and a performance of Richard Strauss´s Rosenkavalier conducted by Herbert von Karajan. The venue features concerts of music, opera and ballet by leading international performers and hosts Salzburg festival events.
