About

The Teatro Calderón de la Barca is a theater in Valladolid, Spain. It is named after the playwright Pedro Calderón de la Barca.

The site of the theater was occupied until the mid-nineteenth century by the palace of the Duke of Osuna, Admiral of Castile, which was demolished to make way for the theatre.

Jerónimo de la Gándara was the architect.

One of the largest theaters in Spain, the facade has an eclectic neo-classical style.

The interior has a horseshoe shape in the Italian style.
