==History== The opera building of Oper am Gänsemarkt at the square was used from 1678 to 1738. In 1765 the building was demolished and replaced by the Hamburg National Theatre, which had to close in 1769. The theatre employed Gotthold Ephraim Lessing as the world's first dramaturg. Today, the Hamburg State Opera is located a few metres north at Dammtorstraße.
