Teatro Fernando Calderón, Theatre building in Zacatecas, Mexico.

The Teatro Fernando Calderón features a neoclassical architecture with five wooden doors set in rounded arches decorated with stained glass windows and supporting columns.

The theatre, constructed between 1891 and 1897 by architect George Edward King, replaced an earlier structure from 1832 that burned down in 1889.

The theatre takes its name from Fernando Calderón y Beltrán and currently operates under the management of the Autonomous University of Zacatecas.

Located at Avenida Hidalgo 503, the theatre holds 532 seats distributed across stalls, first floor, and boxes for various performances and events.

During the Battle of Zacatecas in 1914, the theatre sustained damage from explosions in nearby buildings and later served as a cinema and boxing venue.
