History

It was designed by architect Jose Zacarias Camaña and opened in 1853. During the Spanish Civil War it was called Teatro Libertad.[2] It was remodeled in 1956 by Miguel Sanchis.[3]

The building was abandoned by 1990.[4] In October 1999 it was occupied by squatters but was then evicted by the Policía Nacional.[5] On 27 February 2009 it was destroyed by a fire.[6]
