Lorain Palace Theatre

About

The Lorain Palace Theater is a theater located in Lorain, Ohio. Built in 1928, the opening night film was a pre-release of Paramount's "Something Always Happens" which was the first talky ever played in the State of Ohio. The theater is still in operation as a community Civic Center, movie theater, meeting place, and entertainment facility.

The theater has a mix of design features including an Italian Renaissance Revival style auditorium and a Venetian Gothic style lobby. The crystal chandelier, Wurlitzer pipe organ, and two spacious loges are just some of the features which made this building worthy of being preserved. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
