Guided Tours Pathé Tuschinski

Large-Scale Restoration

Pathé Tuschinski underwent a large-scale restoration from November 2000 to March 2002. During that process, the building revealed some of its historical secrets; 18 Art Deco women emerged, designed by Pieter den Besten. The restoration also uncovered Willem Kromhout's original peacock ceiling in the Grote Zaal.

On 28 October 1921, The Netherlands' most luxurious film theater opened its doors. Visitors walked in along its characteristic carpets, into a colourfully decorated fairytale. All of Abraham Tuschinski's favourite styles were incorporated into the building, with works from top artists: Willem Kromhout, Jaap Gidding, and Pieter den Besten merged Jugendstil, Amsterdamse School and Art Deco into this dream cinema. Theatre Tuschinski: a space to escape reality.
