Ufa-Filmbuehne Wien

The original architects of the Union Palast were Nentwich & Simon and it opened with 850 seats. The building went through many alterations over the years, most drastic was in 1979-81 when the cinema was sub-divided into 5 screens and since 1983 further alteration made it into an 8 screen cinema with a seating capacity of 1,204. There was still some original decorative detail remaining in the foyer area prior to closure and demolition.
