Built 1898 by Bernier as the 3rd Salle Favart on the site of two former theatre buildlings of the same name (1st Salle Favart: built 1783, destroyed by a fire in 1838; 2nd Salle Favart: built 1840, destroyed by a fire on 25 May 1887). Named in honour of the French opera librettist and Vaudeville author, Charles Edouard Favart. The three Salles Favart have been home to the Opéra-Comique company from 1783 to 1801, from 1840 to 1887, and again since 1898. 1500 seats.
