Step into one of the world's only fully preserved Baroque theatres, its original 18th-century machinery, painted sets, and candle lighting still intact.
What to expect
A guide walks you through backstage wing mechanisms, trapdoors, and thunder-sheets, then invites you into the auditorium where gilded boxes and painted trompe l'oeil ceilings surround the stage. Group sizes are kept intentionally small to protect the fragile 300-year-old set pieces. The visit concludes with a rare demonstration of the original wave and lighting machinery.
Good to know
Reservations are essential and often sell out weeks ahead; no photography is permitted inside to protect the paint. Allow 45-60 minutes and confirm timing against your ship's return schedule.
