Many cinema halls operated in the vicinity of Litewski Square until 1939. Unfortunately, none of them has survived. The Corso Cinema, the most refined of them all, functioned in a building at 3 Radziwiłłowska Street. The Corso cinema had a seating capacity of a thousand people. It was here that for the first time in Lublin a color film was shown, as well as three-dimensional films, for which viewers, along with tickets, received red-green glasses, which were then put on at appropriate moments, having an incredible experience.During their visits to Lublin the father of modern Hebrew poetry Chaim Nachman Bialik (1873-1934) and the leading authors of Yiddish literature - Szalom Ash (1880-1957) and Mosze Kulbak (1896-1937) - gave lectures.The Corso cinema building was burned down in a bombing in 1944.The popular Louvre Cinema functioned on the opposite side of Litewski Square, in the yard of the house at 48 Krakowskie Przedmieście. It changed its name many times and was later known as Świteź, Czary, Wir, Italia and Stylowy. The Palace Cinema and Theater, later renamed as Bałtyk, operated a few dozen meters away, at 11 Szpitalna Street (modern-day Peowiaków Street). It was here that the first historical pre-release screening of The Dybbuk, the classic Yiddish film directed by Michał Waszyński, took place on 20 September 1937. The Apollo Cinema existed at 6 Szpitalna Street.
