The Peabody Opera House is a civic performing arts building in St. Louis. It originally opened in 1934 as the Municipal Auditorium with an indoor arena attached to the south. In 1943, the name was changed to Kiel Opera House, with the arena renamed to Kiel Auditorium. In 1991, the Kiel Opera House and Auditorium closed and the Auditorium was torn down in 1992.

From June 2010 to October 2011, the Kiel Opera House underwent a $78,700,000 renovation and was renamed the Peabody Opera House (after Peabody Energy).

The Peabody Opera House has a seating capacity of 3,100 and also has four side theatres/banquet halls.
