Metropol-Palais, Movie theater in Vasastaden, Stockholm, Sweden
The Metropol-Palais building at Sveavägen 77 features red interior tones and decorative elements from the original 1927 architectural design.
The cinema opened in 1927 with 708 seats and screened 'Don Juan' as its first film before changing its name to Lyran in 1932.
The interior decoration includes Pompeian-inspired murals created by artists Nils Asplund and Jöns Thulin during the initial construction phase.
After renovations in 2013, the former cinema transformed into a conference and event venue managed by Lyran Konferens near Odenplan subway station.
The final film screenings took place in March 1985 despite the cinema remaining profitable, as the property owner reclaimed the space.
