The Khan-Uul District Cultural Center was originally established in 1936 as a workers’ club in the Ajilchin District (Workers’ District) at a location known as “Doviin Dov” to provide recreational and cultural activities for young workers. Later, it was officially renamed “Workers’ Theater” and eventually expanded its operations under the name “Workers’ Palace of Culture.”

The Workers’ Theater was built at its current location by captured Japanese soldiers during that period. In 1986, the building underwent major renovations and was expanded into a two-story structure. At its peak, the Workers’ Palace of Culture had over 130 staff members, making it one of Mongolia’s largest cultural institutions. Many renowned figures in Mongolia’s cultural and artistic sector began their careers at this institution.

Since 1990, the center has continued its activities under the name “Khan-Uul Cultural Center.”

Until 2004, the center operated as a state-funded institution, but in the same year, it was transferred to the Khan-Uul Cultural Management Team. From 2004 to August 2008, it operated under a management contract. However, due to the failure of the management team to fulfill its contractual obligations, the Ulaanbaatar City Privatization Commission issued Resolution No. 88 on September 26, 2008, terminating the contract and returning the center to state funding as a government cultural institution.
