Cine Tauro, Movie theater in Lima District, Peru

Cine Tauro is a defunct cinema at the intersection of Jirón Washington and Jirón Delgado in Lima, designed in a modern style by Peruvian architect Walter Weberhofer. Its facade of large windows faces a triangular plaza, and a neon sign once carried the establishment's name. Inside, a covered hall with oval columns leads past the box office to the auditorium, reached from the main level or by a curved staircase serving the stalls and mezzanine.

Construction of the building began in 1957 under architect Walter Weberhofer and it opened as a cinema in 1960. It emerged at a time when movie theaters were central to urban entertainment across the city.

The cinema's name comes from the Cine Washington, after Washington Street where it stands; it opened on 5 April 1960 with Pillow Talk, starring Rock Hudson and Doris Day. In the 1980s the hall was used by artists of the time as a concert venue. From the 1990s it screened adult films, and in 2019 it was reported that intergenerational audiences, mostly homosexual men, attended continuous showings from 11:00 until after 22:00.

The cinema is closed and has been shut repeatedly since 2004, most recently by the Municipality of Lima in February 2022, so it cannot be visited for screenings. Its entrance faces the triangular plaza at the corner of Jirón Washington and Jirón Delgado. Inside, the main level and a curved staircase led to the stalls and mezzanine.

The neon sign bearing the cinema's name once stood out on the triangular plaza at Washington and Delgado streets. The projector could screen 70mm films, and the house held 720 seats on the ground floor plus 560 on the mezzanine, over 1,000 in all.
