Metropol, Movie theater in Trøjborg, Denmark
Metropol is a multiplex cinema with five screens and a total of 548 seats located in the northern part of Aarhus. The facility features modern projection systems and various seating options for different viewer preferences.
The building opened in 1951 as Palads Teatret with a single large auditorium seating around 800 people. During the 1980s it was converted into a multiplex with several smaller screens.
The theater serves as a gathering place for film enthusiasts in Aarhus and shows current releases managed by Nordisk Film. It contributes to the entertainment landscape of Denmark's second-largest city.
The theater is located at Tordenskjoldsgade 21 and has limited wheelchair accessibility. Visitors should check in advance whether their specific needs can be accommodated in the available screens.
The original 1951 design included double seats specifically meant for couples enjoying films together. This detail from postwar cinema culture remains visible today and reflects how people once used movie theaters.
