Germanico in Germania

 is an opera in three acts composed by Nicola Porpora to an Italian-language libretto by Nicola Coluzzi. It premiered in February 1732 at the Teatro Capranica in Rome with an all-male cast. The leading male roles were taken by two of the most prominent castrato singers of the 18th century—Domenico Annibali as Germanico and Caffarelli as his nemesis Arminio. The female roles were portrayed by castrati "en travesti". The opera's story is a fictionalised account of the Roman general Germanicus and is set in Germania Inferior during 14 AD. "Germanico in Germania" was very popular in its day but fell into obscurity until it was revived in 2015 at the Innsbruck Festival of Early Music.
