Aztec Theatre, Historic entertainment venue in downtown San Antonio, United States
The Aztec Theatre features detailed murals, stone carvings, and architectural elements reflecting indigenous Mexican designs throughout its 1,477-seat interior space and facade.
Meyer & Holler architectural firm constructed this movie palace in 1926 during the economic growth period when exotic entertainment venues emerged across the United States.
The interior decoration includes reproductions of Mesoamerican artifacts, columns, sculptures, and furnishings that showcase the influence of ancient Mexican civilizations.
The box office opens two hours before each performance, and visitors can access several parking garages within walking distance of the theater.
A massive chandelier weighing two tons hangs in the lobby since its installation in 1929, the same day the stock market experienced its historic crash.
