Photos, costumes, models of stage settings, programs, and interesting documents provide a journey through the times. The permanent exhibition "Vienna State Opera - 140 Years of the House on the Ring, 1869 - 2009" starts with the first director of the new opera house, Franz Freiherr von Dingelstedt and ends with Ioan Holender, who was longer in charge than anyone else before.
In addition, you can find data on three terminals about every performance during the last 50 years: singers, conductors, directors, and stage and costume designers come to life, as do all the stage settings.
