Cinema Le Palace

Cinema Le Palace, formerly known as Politeama Rossini or Rossini Palace, is a building located on the Avenue [Habib Bourguiba] in Tunisia. It is nowadays a movie theater.

History

Inaugurated on 12 March 1903 as the Politeama Rossini, it was originally a theater for the Italian community in Tunisia. In 1923, it was sold and transformed into a furniture store. A few years later, it was transformed into a movie theater.
The Association de sauvegarde de la médina de Tunis restored the building's pediment during the embellishment works of Avenue Habib Bourguiba in 2002.
