Caligari Shutting Down by October:
Historic Wiesbaden Cinema Hall Undergoes Fire Safety Upgrade and Modernization
The historic building that houses Wiesbaden's municipal cinema is currently undergoing a significant transformation. The cinema hall, which hasn't seen a modernization in 25 years, is being upgraded to meet modern fire safety standards.
As part of the renovation, scaffolding has been erected throughout the large hall, reaching up to the ceiling. This temporary structure has provided an unusual view of the building's architectural details. While the seat frames remain in place, the old cinema seats have been dismantled, and their upholstery removed. The worn-out carpeting has also been disposed of.
To protect the delicate items such as the screen, curtain, and speakers, they have been carefully packed and set aside. The seat armrests are being re-upholstered to maintain the historic charm of the venue.
The progress of the work on the historic building is being documented and shared on the Caligari and on social media at Wiesbaden.deineKultur. For those seeking more specific information about this project, further inquiries with Wiesbaden city authorities or the management of the historic building may be necessary.
Citizens with questions regarding the work on the historic building can contact the responsible department, office, or the town hall switchboard. The Press Office of the State Capital Wiesbaden, the publisher of this press release, can also be contacted via their website at www.wiesbaden.de/pressereferat.
