Théâtre des Célestins, Italian-style theatre in 2nd arrondissement, Lyon, France
The Théâtre des Célestins features two performance halls, including the main auditorium and the smaller Célestine space with 130 seats.
Architect Gaspard André designed this theatre in 1877, but after a fire in 1880, he supervised repairs before the final opening in 1881.
The theatre presents a mix of classical repertoire and contemporary productions, making it one of the three longest-operating theatres in France.
The theatre's ticket office opens Tuesday through Saturday from 12:15 PM to 6:45 PM, with additional service one hour before each performance.
The building stands on the former site of a Celestine monastery established in 1407 through a land grant from Amedee VIII of Savoy.
