“Cultural life in the city concentrated in literary gatherings, which during the Nineteenth century allowed Bogotanians to share their literary and political concerns and to attend musical and drama presentations. Maldonado Theater featured theatrical and opera presentations and by the end of the Nineteenth century Bogotá had two important theatres: the Theater of Cristóbal Colón, inaugurated in 1892, and the Municipal Theatre, inaugurated in 1895, which featured zarzuela (operetta) and musical shows. Also the scenario for important Colombian history events during the decades of the 30s and 40s”

It is the oldest theater of films showing in Bogotá. It got its name because it was built inside crockery’s factory installations (called Faenza). The building has Italian influence, architectonic features of art nouveau and academic eclectic of the end of XIX century.
