Teatre Arnau, Historic theater in El Raval, Barcelona, Spain.

The Teatre Arnau features cast-iron architecture with a capacity of 707 seats, standing prominently on Avinguda del Paral·lel in Barcelona's El Raval district.

Opening in 1894 as a wooden structure, the theater received a complete reconstruction in 1903 under architect Andreu Audet i Puig's supervision.

The venue served multiple functions throughout its history, transitioning from theatrical performances to cinema screenings while maintaining its status as a cultural heritage site.

The Barcelona City Council acquired the building in 2010 for 2.5 million euros, with renovation costs estimated at approximately ten million euros.

Famous artists like Raquel Meller started their careers at Teatre Arnau, which operated under the name Folies Bergère during a portion of its existence.
