Opera in the Quarry and Gerstner

The opera in the St. Margarethen quarry is a place where music, culture, wine and cuisine merge into an enjoyable overall experience.

Gerstner - culinary partner of the Opera in the Quarry

Since 1996, the St. Margarethen quarry has become one of the leading meeting places for opera lovers from all over Europe. Nestled in a historically significant cultural landscape, this extraordinary place invites you to an unforgettable journey into unique worlds of experience. To ensure that enjoyment is not neglected, Gerstner is the culinary partner of the opera lounge.

The flying Dutchman

In 2025, visitors to the opera in the quarry will once again be treated to an outstanding production. “The Flying Dutchman” will be the first time a work by Richard Wagner will be shown.

With a running time of two and a half hours, this production promises a fascinating summer experience, in which the rugged rocky landscape of the St. Margarethen quarry will once again become the perfect backdrop for a thrilling opera performance.
