Once upon a time not far from Rue de la Galaxie stood a cinema. It was originally called the Palace du Moulin. By 1946, it transformed into an Art Deco masterpiece and was renamed Fountainebleau Cinema.
Later, Gaumont operated it in 1967 with 900 seats. It was then known as Galaxie. Sadly, the Galaxie cinema closed its doors on June 3, 1986. A post office now stands on the site of the former Galaxie cinema.
