The National Cultural Center, known as the Egyptian Opera House, is considered one of the most important cultural beacons in Egypt.

Successive administrations were also keen to present various singing and musical arts in addition to opera to achieve communication with broad strata of society.

The history of the construction of the old opera house dates back to the period of prosperity witnessed by the era of Khedive Ismail in all fields.
