Kolosseum, Theatre and movie theater in Alsergrund, Vienna, Austria
The Kolosseum was a theater and movie house in Vienna's ninth district with multiple screening rooms spread across different levels. The rooms ranged from smaller cinemas to a larger hall that could accommodate many viewers at once.
After World War II, the building first served as a cinema for American soldiers stationed in Vienna during the occupation period. It later developed into a popular entertainment venue for the local population.
The venue served as a gathering place where people came to enjoy films and theatrical performances, reflecting how entertainment habits shifted throughout the city over many decades.
The building is located on Nussdorfer Strasse in the ninth district and is easy to reach by public transport. Visitors should know that the venue no longer operates as a cinema or theater today.
In the 1980s, the original large auditorium was divided into seven differently sized cinema rooms to show multiple films at the same time. This redesign was a response to the multiplex cinema trend that was spreading across Europe.
