Por otra parte Luis Rueda Galán en "Los espacios de cine en Jaén (1898-1966)", describe en su estudio que este salón de espectáculos, anexo a la Cervecería El Norte, fue inaugurado en julio de 1910, contando ya desde ese momento con un cinematógrafo dentro de su oferta. El lugar estaba acondicionado para hacer comedias, bailes y celebraciones diversas. En 1914 y siguiente sería sede de la Asociación de la Prensa de Jaén. Dos años antes ya se había inaugurado, poco más abajo, el Monumento a las Batallas.Siendo propietario del salón Federico del Castillo Extremera (1875-1936, médico de Jaén, miembro de la Económica, presidente de Izquierda Republicana, presidente del Círculo Mercantil en 1929 y de la Diputación Provincial en 1936, apasionado de la literatura y la música), en octubre de 1917 encargó una gran reforma al arquitecto burgalés Manuel Mendoza, modificando la embocadura del escenario y colocando un nuevo telón pintado.
