Coliseo Building, Theater building at Avenida de la Constitución, Seville, Spain
Description
The Coliseo Building stands at number 38 Avenida de la Constitución as a three-story structure with basement levels. Its facades display regional architectural features characteristic of the building's era, with spaces designed to accommodate cultural and commercial functions.
History
The building opened in 1931 as Teatro Coliseo España, designed by architect José Gómez Millán with his brother Aurelio's contributions. It subsequently served as a bank headquarters before being acquired by the Junta de Andalucía for administrative purposes.
Culture
This structure was once a theater that drew art lovers from across the city. The carefully designed interior spaces featured large murals on Italian green marble, reflecting an ambitious artistic vision that was later preserved and relocated.
Practical
The building is situated in a central location on a main avenue and is easy to reach on foot. Visitors should note that it now houses administrative offices and is primarily experienced from the exterior.
Did you know?
An ornate chandelier from the original interior was restored and moved to the Teatro Lope de Vega. This relocatable work of art now creates an unexpected link between two of the city's cultural buildings.
