Eldorado Cinema (Oslo)

Eldorado Cinema was a multiplex (movie theater) located at Torggata 9 in Oslo sentrum.

In 1891 the half-acre plot at Torggata 9 was bought by a company, which constructed two buildings which were designed in the New Renaissance style by architect Harald Olsen.

Along Torggata was a four-story building which contained business locations; inside was a courtyard with an area for shows and concerts with seats for 1600 people.

Eldorado showed typical westerns and spy movies for many decades, and was one of the premiere theaters for James Bond films.

All theaters were refurbished in 2000, and the capacity was reduced to 1000 seats, with the distance between the rows having been increased.
