A group of journalists toured a historic cinema in Tehran that was heavily damaged during war, observing historical marks and cultural recovery efforts. The cinema is being restored and opened to the public as a symbol of heritage preservation.
As part of a media tour, reporters visited a historic cinema in Tehran, Iran, which sustained significant damage during past war conflicts.
This cinema is not only an entertainment venue but also a historical witness, preserving war traces through cracked walls and damaged vintage projection equipment. Although it had long been in decline, the structure is gradually being restored and opened to the public.
The tour was organized by cultural authorities to honor the cinema's historical value and underscore the importance of preserving cultural heritage even in the post-war context. Reporters photographed dilapidated rows of seats, old screens, and documentary images depicting the site's painful past.
The activity drew widespread interest from local residents and experts, reflecting Iran's efforts to restore cultural symbols after the war. Cultural officials said the cinema will continue to be preserved as a monument where visitors can learn about the impact of war on art and social life.
