Municipal Theatre of Chartres, Theatre building in Chartres, France.
The Municipal Theatre of Chartres features a main hall with four levels including stalls, pit, first and second galleries, accommodating 570 spectators.
The theatre opened its doors on April 28, 1861, replacing previous performances that took place in Saint-Foy Church between 1797 and 1857.
The theatre serves as a central performance venue in Chartres, presenting plays, concerts, circus acts, and comedy shows throughout the year.
