The Palace Theater is a historic movie palace in downtown Canton, Ohio, United States. Constructed during the heyday of the movie palace in the 1920s, it has been named a historic site. The 21' x 46' screen is the largest in Canton as of 2019. It contains a Kilgen theater organ which is still playing to this day, thanks to an eight month restoration effort in 1992.https://cantonpalacetheatre.org/about-us/brief-history-of-the-kilgen-organ/ Only a few dozen such organs are still operational at their original sites.
