Description:

The Baroque Theatre in the World Heritage City of Cesky Krumlov Revived after 240 Years Located in South Bohemia, Cesky Krumlov has retained its medieval townscape intact. In the center of this World Heritage-listed historical district, the beautiful, fairy-tale-like Cesky Krumlov Castle preserves a Baroque theater completed in 1766, which still retains its original Baroque stage set. The castle's owner, Marquis Joseph Schwarzenberg, ordered Giuseppe Scarlatti to write "Where There Is Love, There Is Jealousy" for his son's wedding, and this miraculous revival of the opera, which was first performed in the castle's Baroque theater in 1768, is a must-see.Each piece of calligraphy and costume is like a work of art, and the unique baroque stage mechanism and the baroque ensemble playing under the dim light of a candle will transport the audience back in time to the baroque era.
