Filmoteca Española

The Filmoteca Española (Spanish Cinemathèque) is an official institution of the Ministry of Culture of Spain. Its objective is to restore, investigate and conserve the film heritage of Spain and its diffusion.

Its cinema where films are daily shown is cine Doré (filmed by Pedro Almodóvar in Hable con ella), in Santa Isabel Street, Madrid, designed by architect Críspulo Moro Cabeza and built in 1923. It was restored from 1982 to 1990. The archive, offices, library and exhibition halls are set in a restored palace on Magdalena St nº 10 in Madrid.
