Teatro Odeón

The Odeon Theater (Teatro Odeón in Spanish) was a theater in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was built by Don Emilio Bieckert in the end of the 19th century. In July 1896, it hosted the first ever film screening in Argentina. It was demolished in 1991 in order to make space for the construction of a parking lot.

Currently the Odeon Tower is being built on the site, and a new theater is being built on one side of the tower to replace the former.

Main entrance in 1985.
