Set on a prominent location in the centre of Piran, the building itself is a fine example of a fin-de-siecle gesamtkunstwerk, created in around 1910 in mixed Historicist and Secession styles by Trieste architects. As there were no regular theatre ensembles in Piran, the venue was soon used as the main venue for events of a public nature, from dances to cinema screenings. It has retained this character up until today.
