Theater, a dazzling Art Deco building designed by architect Béla Lajta, near the Opera House.

In the vicinity of the Opera House, the New Theater was built according to the plans of the talented architect Béla Lajta (1909). Originally it was a club called Parisiana, which changed its function in 1919 to serve the dramatic arts. The building, often classified as Art Nouveau, is actually in a dazzling Art Deco style. Nationalized in 1949, it was turned into a social-realist building, so unsightly that in 1987, the city council decided to return it to the original!

C'est grâce à la ballade art nouveau du guide petit futé que j'ai découvert ce petit bâtiment caché près de l'opéra et il vaut le détour pour les amateurs d'art déco car je n'ai jamais vu une façade aussi insolite, très simple en apparence mais en s'approchant, plein de détails avec des anges sur le toit, des singes tenant des boules de céramiques...
On regrette même que ce soit un théâtre tant on aimerait entrer et visiter tout le bâtiment. Mais comme c'était l'après-midi, nous avons eu la possibilité d'entrer dans la billeterie, déjà très jolie et jeter un coup d'oeil aux jolies portes en bois!
