Atlas Cinema, Cinema theater in Beyoğlu, Turkey.
Atlas Cinema occupies a Renaissance Revival building on Istiklal Avenue with elaborate ceiling ornaments and architectural details dating to 1877. The screening hall preserves the original beauty of its interior, including hand-drawn ceiling decorations, while equipped with contemporary projection technology.
The building was constructed in 1877 by Armenian banker Agop Koceyan as a private residence. It later transformed into a music hall before being converted into a cinema in 1948.
The cinema serves as a key venue for the International Istanbul Film Festival and attracts audiences interested in both Turkish and world cinema. Its location on Istiklal Avenue makes it a gathering place where locals and visitors connect through film.
The cinema is located at Istiklal Avenue 133 and is easily accessible by metro and tram lines. Check beforehand about seating comfort and accessibility options for your visit.
The cinema underwent major restoration work from 2019 to 2021, carefully preserving the original hand-drawn ceiling decorations created by a French artist. These intricate details in the interior remain one of the most notable features visitors can observe.
