Coliseu dos Recreios, Concert hall in Arroios, Lisbon, Portugal.

The Coliseu dos Recreios contains an iron dome with a 25-meter radius ordered from Germany, demonstrating late 19th-century engineering capabilities and architectural design.

German engineers completed the installation of the building's metal structure in 1889, marking a new era of entertainment venues in Portugal's capital city.

Since its inauguration in 1890, this performance space has presented operas, concerts, and theatrical shows, hosting international artists and national productions.

The venue accommodates 4,300 spectators and offers online ticket purchases through the BOL platform for upcoming performances and seasonal events.

Architects Cesare Ianz designed the facade with decorative motifs and gargoyles, while painter António Machado created the ornamental elements.
