Located adjacent to the 1925-built Cine Capitolio in the downtown Rio in the Cinelandia district. The Cine Pathe-Palacio opened in 1907 near the corner of Avenida Rio Branco. The exterior has a fresco of a naked reclining female on the facade at first floor level, each side of the entrance. It was closed in 1999.
It is now occupied by the Brazilian based Universal Church of the Kingdom of God(UCKG).

This cinema was apparently still substantially unchanged inside but it was in use by a church group when seen in 2008. At that time the interior was all white, which muted the original decorative elements, and cinema style seats were retained.
