Empress Maria Theresa of Austria was responsible for the significant renovations carried out in Milan during the 18th century. This profound urban and artistic renewal included the establishment of Teatro alla Scala, inaugurated in 1778 and today one of the world's most famous opera houses, and the renovation of the Royal Palace.

Galva Opera House Galva Opera House The Galva Opera House is a historic theater located at 334-348 Front Street in Galva, Illinois. Built in 1878, the theater opened as the "Blue Ribbon Temperance Hall"; by 1886, it had lost its association with the temperance movement and was known by its present name. Galva's location on two major railroad lines allowed traveling theatrical troupes to visit the theater; shows produced by local talent performed in the building as well. Local schools also used the building for their graduation ceremonies, sporting events, and school plays until Galva High School opened its own auditorium in 1932.
