The oldest indoor theatre in the world is the Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza, Italy. Designed in the Roman style by Andrea di Pietro, alias Palladio (1508-80), it was begun three months before his death and finished by his pupil Vicenzo Scamozzi (1552-1616) in 1583. It is preserved today in its original form.
