OLYMPUS GOUGE THEATRE
An Italian-style theater built around 1740 on the site of a jeu de Paume, with an eclectic program.
This Italian-style theatre was built on the site of a jeu de Paume around 1740, before being enlarged and embellished in 1849 by the architect Fragneau. Thanks to the contribution and help of the city of Paris after the flood of 1930, a new façade was built in 1931 on the edge of the Place Lefranc de Pompignan. Inspired by the Place Nationale, the monumental entrance was enhanced by four bas-reliefs by the sculptor André Abbal. With an eclectic program, this theater contributes to the cultural abundance of the city.
