A lance for the opera. In addition to the imposing white building on the Ringstrasse around the city center of Graz, the sculpture "Lightsaber" refers to the protection of human rights. At the same time, it stands in exciting contrast to the adjacent opera house and is proof of the city's cultural awareness.

The Graz artist Hartmut Skerbisch was inspired by the libretto, which is based on a text by Franz Kafka, to create this "Statue of Liberty" with sword and globe. The 54 m height corresponds to the model in New York.

Hiking
A champion of opera. Next to the imposing white building on the Ringstrasse around the city center of Graz, the "Light Saber" sculpture points to the protection of human rights. At the same time, it stands in exciting contrast to the opera house next door and is proof of the city's cultural awareness. The opera itself, once a city theater, is now a magnificent stage for breathtaking productions in Graz, ranging from musical theater to ballet, and it is part of the European Route of Historical Theaters.
