Stora Teatern
It was originally founded to replace the Segerlindska teatern, and as such was known as Nya Theatern until 1880. The thirty-meter-high theater was inaugurated on September 15, 1859. During the first 60 years, this was mainly a dramatic theater featuring opera and operetta. In 1916, Stora Teatern became primarily a lyrical theater.[2]
