The Bataclan was build by Charles Duval in 1864. At that time it was named ‘Le grand Café Chinois-Théâtre Ba-ta-clan’.
At that time, the façade looked like a Chinese pagoda with large and proud statues of buddhas and dragons on the cornices. If the main look and the original colours have been preserved, the statues have disappeared over time. However, you can still admire painted dragon heads near the window frames.
