Memory Palaces

Explore London's Cinemas

At the heart of Memory Palaces is information about cinemas in every corner of London.

Among the wealth of data you can see when they were built, who designed them, what films they first screened and, sadly, in some cases when they were demolished.

Photographs of what the cinemas look like today accompany each entry.
