De Hallen Amsterdam, Cultural center in Oud-West, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
De Hallen Amsterdam is a cultural center in the Oud-West neighborhood that spans multiple connected buildings with nine cinema rooms, exhibition spaces, and an indoor food market with various food stands and bars. The complex brings together film screenings, art displays, and dining options in one location.
The building began as a tram depot in the 19th century and was extensively renovated in 2015 to become a cultural center. This transformation preserved the industrial structure while giving it new purpose as a venue for art and community.
The cinema here screens independent and artistic films that reflect the neighborhood's creative spirit and attract film enthusiasts. The food market within the complex serves as a meeting place where locals and visitors mix throughout the day and evening.
The center is located in the Oud-West area and is accessible on foot or by bicycle, with ample parking available. Visitors should note that operating hours are extensive, though individual facilities within the complex may have varying schedules.
One screening room within the complex preserves an original Art Deco interior from a Paris cinema dating to the 1920s. This unusual architectural element brings a piece of European film history to Amsterdam.
