Teatro Rojas

Teatro Rojas is a heritage theatre in Toledo with three levels of architectural detail, including arched windows, stone masonry, and a triangular pediment displaying the city's coat of arms. The main hall has a horseshoe shape with iron columns that are original to the 19th-century design.

Built in 1878 on the site of a former comedy courtyard, it opened on October 19, 1879 with a performance of Del Rey Abajo Ninguno. Since then it has served as an important venue for performing arts in Toledo.

The ceiling shows paintings of Thalia, the theatre muse, and portraits of Spanish playwrights Tirso de Molina and Calderon de la Barca. These artworks reflect the venue's role as a space for dramatic arts.

The venue holds about 472 spectators and features multiple staircases for easy movement throughout the building. You can expect well-planned internal flow and good air circulation during your visit.

The horseshoe-shaped main hall rests on iron columns from the original construction that have survived multiple renovations. These columns are a visible reminder of how the building has been cared for since it first opened.
