Early Grand Opera House
Grand History!
The Grand Opera House is the oldest theater in Dubuque and was built in 1889-1890 at an estimated cost of $65,000. Done in the Richardsonian architectural style, the original facade consists of St. Louis brick facing with Bayfield red sandstone trim. Dubuque's rich heritage is brought to life at the Grand Opera House. Click on the photo above to see more historical photographs and learn about the Grand's history.
