    The 520 seat Thomaston Opera House was built in 1884. It was used as a venue for theatrical performances and social events until the 1930s, when it was converted for a time into a movie house. Today, under an agreement with the town of Thomaston, it is managed by the Landmark Community Theatre and serves as a cultural and recreational center for the town and surrounding communities.
