In the summer of 2026, Läckö Castle will be transformed into a prison.
Fidelio is Beethoven's only opera. A rescue opera, its plot is said to be based on a real event from the French Revolution.
It is a work whose story can reflect many situations in our time where human rights are suppressed and ordinary people are killed or taken away into captivity. But it is also a story of hope. The hope that the resistance of the little person can bring about real change.
