Standing tall and proud, this architectural gem showcases the remarkable art deco design that was popular during its opening year in 1937. The Odeon Cinema exudes a sense of grandeur and sophistication, inviting movie enthusiasts to step into a world of leisure and recreation.

Its symmetrical structure is adorned with intricate details and decorative elements that epitomize the glamour of yesteryears. As one gazes upon it, they can almost imagine themselves transported back to a time when going to the movies was an enchanting experience. It is worth noting that in 1972, changes were made to accommodate modern demands as the auditorium was divided into three screens.
