Odeon Multisala, Italian national heritage cinema near Duomo, Milan, Italy.
Odeon Multisala is a cinema on Via Santa Radegonda in central Milan, a short walk from the Cathedral. It has ten screening rooms of different sizes spread across several floors of the building.
The building opened as a theater in 1882 and was converted into a cinema in 1917. In the 1930s, major renovation work added new spaces to the structure, including an underground room.
The Odeon regularly screens films in their original language with subtitles, which draws a crowd different from typical multiplex audiences. This habit has made it a meeting point for film lovers in the center of Milan.
The cinema sits just behind Milan Cathedral and is easy to reach on foot from most of the city center. Tickets can be bought online in advance, and the building is accessible for people with mobility needs.
The main auditorium of the Odeon still has an ornate Art Deco ceiling that survived the renovations of the 20th century. This room is one of the few surviving examples of that style inside a working cinema in Milan.
