Place du Théâtre, Central square near Saint-Michel Church in Dijon, France
Place du Théâtre features a neoclassical theater building and connects to several pedestrian streets in the historic district of Dijon.
The square changed its name from Place Saint-Étienne to Place du Théâtre in 1904 during a period of street name secularization.
The Grand Théâtre, constructed between 1810 and 1828 by architects Jacques Cellerier and Simon Vallot, presents regular theatrical productions.
Multiple restaurants, hotels, and banks surround the square, which underwent modifications in 2013 to reduce vehicle traffic and increase pedestrian access.
The Caisse d'Epargne building, designed by architect Arthur Chaudouet, stands as an example of late 19th-century architecture on the square.
