About

The Teatro Capitólio, officially called Cineteatro Capitólio - Teatro Raul Solnado, is located in Parque Mayer, in Lisbon, Portugal. It was opened in 1931. Because of its early modernist design it has been recognized as the first building of the Modern movement in Portugal and was declared a "Building of Public Interest" in 1983. Suffering from water damage, the theatre was closed in the 1980s and only finally reopened in November 2016 after extensive restoration.
