Teatro Municipal de Trujillo, Cultural property in historic center of Trujillo, Peru.

The Teatro Municipal de Trujillo is a theater building in the historic center of the city with a main auditorium seating around 408 people, decorated balconies, and a large stage for performances. The space retains its classical interior architecture suited for various stage productions.

The building was destroyed by a devastating fire in 1910, after which reconstruction began and took over a decade to complete. The rebuilding process extended into the early 1920s, resulting in a restored theater.

The theatre's name comes from its purchase by the Municipality of Trujillo through Enrique O'Donovan, and its 1875 opening featured companies such as the Duclós. Its interior once carried friezes by the Spanish painter Oñate. Today it houses an administrative office, a piano room and a ballet room alongside the 408-seat auditorium.

The theater is located downtown and easily accessible on foot, welcoming visitors during both daytime and evening hours. It is helpful to check in advance when performances are scheduled and if guided tours are available.

The 1910 fire killed 54 people and destroyed the building; it took 13 years to rebuild. The reopening on 12 October 1923 was part of the independence centenary, with the National Company performing and the theatre lit by the city electric company. A crimson plush curtain covered the stage until the ceremony began at seven.
