Strong emotion at the sight of the Teatro della Scala, the great dancer Carla Fracci ❤️ immediately comes to mind
November 6, 2022
The Nuovo Regio Ducal Teatro alla Scala, simply known as Teatro alla Scala, colloquially called la Scala, is the main opera house in Milan.
May 18, 2022
The Scala is the successor building to the Teatro Regio Ducale, which burned down in 1776. Maria Theresia had the church of Santa Maria alla Scala torn down for the new building in the capital of what was then Austrian Lombardy and the classicist architect Giuseppe Piermarini built the rather simple-looking new opera house in just 23 months. The entrance is a vestibule with a portico. Above the row of windows there is a gable field with Apollo's sun chariot. The new house was opened on August 3, 1778, and Antonio Salieri's opera L'Europa riconosciuta was performed at the premiere.

From the outside, the Scala in Milan is very inconspicuous. However, if it's open, it's worth taking a look inside.
