TEATRO CIRCO – MURCIA
The Teatro Circo Murcia is situated in the cultural centre of Murcia, and has a fascinating history that dates back to 1892. Originally, the theatre was used as a circus venue, which can be distinguished by its large domed roof and theatrical design. It then became the location for famous horse shows and later, in 1908 a cinema house. At the beginning of 1984 it was closed permanently, until the Murcia City Council took it on as a restoration project which concluded in 2011.
