Pathé-Cordeliers, Movie theater in 2nd arrondissement of Lyon, France
Pathé-Cordeliers was a multiplex cinema in central Lyon with multiple screens spread across different floors of the building. The theaters were equipped with digital projection technology and high-quality sound systems to enhance the film experience.
The building began as the Scala theater in the late 1800s and was converted into a cinema in 1906. It went through several changes until it became the Pathé-Cordeliers multiplex in 2008.
The cinema showed French and international films and was part of Lyon's moviegoing culture. It served as a meeting place where locals gathered to watch current releases and special screenings.
The cinema was located centrally on rue de la République, making it easy to reach. Visitors could book tickets online, and the building was well organized with screening rooms on different levels.
The venue housed an adult cinema section alongside its regular movie screens during part of its operation. This unusual combination was an aspect of how the multiplex evolved before it eventually closed in 2016.
