Spegeln, Art Deco movie theater in Stortorget, Malmö, Sweden
Spegeln is an Art Deco cinema located at Stortorget in Malmö with three screening rooms of varying sizes. The rooms accommodate 167, 64, and 63 spectators respectively and are spread across multiple levels within the building.
The building originated as a bank designed by architect August Stolz in the 1910s. In 1934 it was transformed into the Alcazar Cinema, marking the start of its life as a movie theater.
The cinema serves film enthusiasts with a curated selection of independent productions, classic films, and live opera transmissions. This programming attracts audiences interested in art house cinema rather than commercial blockbusters.
The venue is open Tuesday through Sunday and sells tickets and refreshments on-site. Planning ahead is helpful since operating hours are limited to certain days of the week.
The cinema screened 'The Robe' in Cinemascope format on August 20, 1954, a regional first for this advanced projection technology. This moment represented a significant technological milestone for moviegoing in Malmö during the 1950s.
