A spiegeltent is a large travelling <a href="/facts/Tent/j4UfHU7B">tent</a>, constructed from <a href="/facts/Wood/z13NpHPl">wood</a> and <a href="/facts/Canvas/ryeLvo7s">canvas</a> and decorated with <a href="/facts/Mirror/wMu4u6BB">mirrors</a> and <a href="/facts/Stained_glass/oUCut2Mc">stained glass</a>, intended as an entertainment venue. 
Originally built in <a href="/facts/Belgium/YKuMXP5j">Belgium</a> during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, only a handful of spiegeltents remain in existence and continuing to travel predominantly around Europe.

Two tents used by <a href="/facts/Teatro_ZinZanni/wgECInUc">Teatro ZinZanni</a> have been in semi-permanent locations in Seattle and San Francisco for several years. The Melba Spiegeltent spent the better part of a century touring Europe, but is now permanently located in Melbourne, Australia. The Famous Spiegeltent, built in 1920, is now owned by Australian jazz piano player David Bates.
