Kino Bosna, formerly Kino Prvi Maj (Cinema of the 1st May), is a very important spot on Sarajevo's alternative arts scene. The building that houses the cinema was built in 1928 and, back then, it was one of only a few movie theaters in town. A stage was installed when the cinema hall was being constructed and, in addition to film screenings, this facility has always served as a venue for different kinds of manifestations: plays, concerts, dance evenings.... After the war in the 1990s, Kino Prvi Maj was renamed Kino Bosna and, in more recent years, it has served less as a cinema and more as a place where interesting arts events, such as music gigs, exhibitions, performances, etc. are held.

Sarajevo isn’t known as the “Jerusalem of Europe” for nothing. In its more harmonious past this was the only European city to have a mosque, Catholic church, Orthodox church and synagogue in the same neighbourhood.
