Prague’s Bio Oko cinema reopens after four-month renovation

The Bio Oko cinema in Prague’s Letná district reopens on Saturday after a four-month reconstruction, The refurbishment has brought new seating, lighting, and acoustic features, as well as better access for visitors with disabilities.

Bio Oko, located in Františka Křížka Street, first opened in 1940 in a functionalist building by architects Jaroslav Stockar-Bernkopf and Josef Šolc. The space was already transformed once before, between 2007 and 2009, into a broader cultural venue. A community celebration and official reopening are planned for December 2.
