Junchavín Theater

Teatro de la Ciudad Junchavín

Its life began as a 19th-century mansion, then it became a theater named after Belisario Domínguez, then it became the Cine Montebello, a cinema. Finally, in the eighties, it was turned back into a theater again. Its architecture is striking thanks to its neoclassical style, the beautiful angels decorating the frieze, the pilasters and Corinthian capitals, and its facades and balconies. It is now the setting for theater, music and dance productions. It’s a forum for festivals, cinema screenings, conferences and even political events.
