Description

Fashion, architecture and a very narrow door 👗🚪

At the Royal Opera House, even the Grand Staircase has a story to tell.

Designed to accommodate the sweeping crinoline gowns of the 19th century, its generous width allowed ladies to ascend and descend with grace.

Just around the corner, the entrance to the King’s Smoking Room tells a different tale...

Curious to uncover more of the building’s hidden history?

Join one of our behind-the-scenes tours for a glimpse into the stories, spaces and secrets.
