The Baralt Theatre is a renowned art nouveau building of metropolitan Maracaibo, Venezuela, at the northwestern corner of the famous Plaza Bolivar. The original edifice was erected in the mid 19th century as a small performance hall, with subsequent auditoriums there having seen many different reconstructions.
The theatre received the National Monument designation in 1981. This designation recognizes the place as the site of the first film displays in the country. Today it remains an iconic part of Maracaibo’s historical center.
