During the Second World War, the building was almost completely destroyed, but was restored. Today, the neo-Renaissance opera building has become a venue for a variety of conferences, congresses and other events. The motto “True, Beautiful, Kind” is carved into the building. The facade of the building is decorated with a double pediment, similar to a Greek portico, and statues on the roof. The hallway of the building is a prime example of 19th century neoclassicism.
