By the project of reconstruction of the Small Roman Theatre, which is situated at the centre of the City of Pula, partial restoring of the stands was carried out with the goal of preserving and revitalizing this exceptional cultural heritage location. The newly arranged location will be used for organization of shows, performances and concerts.
In order to preserve the antique site, two (out of three) new stands are elevated and executed from the three-dimensional steel grid that follows the layout of the former ancient stands. The third (central) stand is executed from white concrete directly on the cleaned bedrock.
The Small Roman Theatre has the capacity of 1700 seats, and, for the purpose of a more efficient circulation of the visitors area during events, 6 entrances and exits have been anticipated in all.
