Victorine Studios

Victorine Studios are a film studio in the French city of Nice. They are also known as the Nice Studios. Several small studios have also existed in the city.

Originally built in 1921 in an attempt to create a Hollywood-style studio on the French Riviera, the major figures behind the new venture were the producers Louis Nalpas and Serge Sandberg. Initially constructed in the early glasshouse style, the facility was soon converted into a more modern electrified design. It had seven sound stages. They worked in parallel with the other main French studios which were clustered in Paris. A key figure in the development of the Victorine was the producer Louis Nalpas. A second studio complex was located in Nice, Saint-Laurent-du-Var Studios which existed from 1920 to 1944.
