Salone Margherita

Salone Margherita is a movie theater in Via dei Due Macelli with 450 seats arranged across multiple levels in a rectangular layout. The hall remains in use for film screenings and television productions, maintaining its function as a working venue.

The theater opened in 1898 with a name honoring Queen Margherita of Savoy. The Marino brothers, who established it, had previous experience operating a similar venue in Naples.

The space evolved from a café-chantant into a cinema, and this dual history remains visible in its design and purpose. Visitors can sense how the venue once hosted live performances alongside its later function as a movie house.

The location is in a central neighborhood and accessible on foot, with parking and public transit nearby. Since the venue hosts different types of events, checking current schedules beforehand helps you plan your visit.

The building was once owned by the Bank of Italy and retains original kitchen facilities from its opening period. These kitchens once allowed guests to dine during performances, a service that speaks to the venue's past elegance.
