In any case, two details intrigue, two drawings located on the left of this totally bare ground floor. The first displays the inscription “Snack” in black and orange letters, Woodstockso probably from the late 60s. The other is a white screen topped with a “METROPOLE” golden. Below, spectators. The rounded shapes help us in any case to recognize the facade of the old cinema, imposing with its large windows.

Only research by the regional heritage administration will make it possible to determine with certainty the origin of the frescoes inspired by Bruegel, a very fashionable universe in the 1950s and 1960s. Do they deserve to be classified? No comments from the administration, which prefers to give itself time for analysis, to contact the owner, the tenant, etc. The property interest is not guaranteed. At the very least, a request for protection should be formulated to prevent any degradation during and after the work. “The idea could be to ask the occupants not to damage these frescoes“, dit-on.

When the work is complete, 20 rue Neuve will have a more modern Celio store.
