With its elegant facade and luxurious interior, this Neoclassical building is one of the last surviving examples of the "palace" style of cinema in western Canada. Owned by the Allen chain, a pioneer of film distribution in Canada, it was designed in 1921 by Howard Crane, an internationally recognized American architect. In 1925, renowned evangelical preacher and future premier of the province William Aberhart began his famous radio broadcasts from the Palace.
