The list of cinemas in Berlin-Charlottenburg gives an overview of all cinemas that have existed and still exist in today's Berlin district of Charlottenburg . The list was built according to information from research in the Kino-Wiki and linked to connections with Berlin's cinema history from further historical and current references. It reflects the status of the film screening facilities that have ever existed in Berlin as well as the situation in January 2020. According to this, there are 92 venues in Berlin, which means first place in Germany, followed by Munich (38), Hamburg (28), Dresden (18) as well as Cologne and Stuttgart (17 each). At the same time, this compilation is part of the lists of all Berlin cinemas .

introduction

The city that was independent until 1920 and the (later) district of Charlottenburg had numerous premiere cinemas around Breitscheidplatz and Kurfürstendamm of national importance, as well as numerous district cinemas in the residential areas. There were also several art cinemas , the first of which was the Filmbühne am Steinplatz , which is an answer to purely commercial program selections. In the wake of the '68 movement , several off-cinemas were built (away from Kurfürstendamm) such as Filmkunst 66 , the Klick or the Crank , which were also subject to a commercialization process.

In the period up to 1914, cinematograph theaters were built on the main streets of the residential districts in shops or commercial floors, but also the first venues specifically built as film theaters such as the Kant cinema , which already has a rank. In 1913, for example, the Tauentzienpalast (in Schöneberg since 1938), the Ufa-Palast am Zoo and the Union-Palast (later Filmbühne Wien) opened the first large cinema palaces in the New West , where the potential audience for the new medium lived. The Princess Theater, which opened in 1911 near Auguste-Viktoria-Platz , with its artistic design by graphic artist Lucian Bernhard , showed the possibilities of the cinema as an independent design. Further trend-setting buildings were built in 1925 with the Capitol am Zoo by Hans Poelzig and the Piccadilly by Fritz Wilms . The Gloria-Palast , which opened in 1926, represented a far more conservative direction with its neo-baroque style and, with a five o'clock tea in its rooms, offered the appropriate ambience for an affluent audience.

After the National Socialists came to power , the premiere business continued, new large houses were no longer built. In the last years of the Second World War and during bombing raids, demonstrations continued, and shelters were set up for spectators. The Allied air raids in November 1943 led to the destruction of the Capitol, the Gloria and Ufa Palaces. On January 30, 1945, the premiere of the film Kolberg took place in the Tauentzienpalast . On January 22, 1945, soloist Anna Alt by Werner Klingler celebrated her premiere in the Marble House.

After the end of the war, the UFA cinemas, which were under trust management, resumed operations. Old UFA productions and films from Allied production were shown. The Besatuingspächte supported the reconstruction and repair of the destroyed cinemas by delivering material. The Filmpalast Berlin (1948), the Delphi Filmpalast (1949) and the Cinema Paris (1950) were created on the initiative of private operators or rental companies of the occupying powers . The importance the Allies attached to cinemas from the beginning of the Cold War is shown by the construction of the Filmbühne on Steinplatz (1950), which the British Military Administration supported immediately after the reconstruction of the Schiller Theater; The reconstruction of the Maison de France immediately after the Berlin blockade was over is one of them. The former Alhambra reopened as a bonbonniere in 1949 after being converted, but closed in 1952 to continue three houses further in 1954 under the same name.

The Berlinale , which took place in the Titania-Palast in 1951 , was relocated to Delphi and the Capitol on Lehniner Platz in 1952 , provided further impetus . In 1953, the new Gloria Palast followed just a few meters from the old location, whose name was linked to the traditional venue. The new building took place on the initiative of the theater company Thomas & Co , which has been successful in Wedding since the 1920s, with the managing director Max Knapp. For a few years this cinema was one of the venues for the International Film Festival . The MGM theater built by Gerhard Fritsche set new accents in cinema architecture in 1956. The Zoo Palast , also designed by Fritsche, opened in 1957 and has been the venue for the Berlinale ever since (with interruptions). The last major cinema in City West opened in 1965 in the recently completed Europa Center, the Royal Palace . Other venues were built, but no longer as independent cinema buildings, but as fixtures in shopping arcades, such as the cinemas in the Ku'damm-Eck .

From the 1960s onwards, the general cinema deaths due to the spread of television fell victim to the district cinemas , and Kurfürstendamm theaters such as the MGM or the Bio also closed until the 1980s. In response, most of the premiere theaters have been converted into box theaters. Also cinemas had to like the Studio (1990), Motion 1 (1997) and Lupe 2 (1998) or the crank close in 2011 had, under considerable public protest. The new venues on Potsdamer Platz after 1990, to which the Berlinale migrated, increased the closure of the Kurfürstendamm cinemas.

In April 2017 there were still 7 cinemas in the Charlottenburg district: the Astor Filmlounge , the Cinema Paris , the Delphi , the Filmkunst 66 , the Kant-Kino , the Klick, and the Zoo Palast . After a long period of preparation, the Yorck cinema group was able to open the Delphi Lux as a new cinema location near the Zoo train station at the beginning of September 2017 .

Name / location	address	Duration	Description and possibly a picture
ABC cinemas ( Location )	Kurfürstendamm 210	1975-1993	Around 1975 the ABC Club Cinema opened at Kurfürstendamm 210, later ABC Kinos 1 + 2, which were operated as porn cinemas. The cinemas were in operation until 1993. In 1992 the cinema promoted: “This movie theater with a pleasure program for ordinary people offers a varied gay film program in the late evening hours. The entrance fee is DM 15 and includes 3 drinks of your choice. ”In Kantstrasse 117 there was a similar cinema called Go Up . The building next to the Maison de France was built from 1968 to 1970 based on a design by the architect Heinz Kroh. It is a listed building monument. The house built on this property in 1897 was demolished for this purpose. The legendary Hong Kong bar was located here , which from 1957 onwards made Kurfürstendamm a meeting place for stars and starlets .
ABC light games ( Location )	Tegeler Weg 97	1953-1965	The cinema was located in the corner building at Tegeler Weg 97 / Bonhoefferufer. Cinema architecture in Berlin indicates the operating years 1953–1958 for the cinema, but this is doubtful. It was mentioned in the Berlin branch telephone directory until 1965. It was not noted in the cinema address book until 1956 when it was taken over by Willi Kaiser.
AKI news cinema at the zoo ( Location )	Joachimsthaler Strasse 43-44	1952-1958	The first AKI contemporary cinema only existed for a few years from October 1, 1952 to 1958. It was built by the architect Paul Schwebes on a vacant triangular plot of land on Joachimsthaler Strasse / Hardenbergstrasse / Kantstrasse , where Wilhelminian-style houses were located before the Second World War. In the news cinema there, the program ran by the hour from 9 a.m. to midnight, 112 performances per week in just one room. A program of newsreels, sports reports, cultural films and a short entertainment or colored cartoon was shown under the motto “A journey around the world in 50 minutes”. When the zoo district was rebuilt, the cinema closed in 1958 and temporarily - until the opening of the new building in Hardenbergstrasse - moved to Tauentzienstrasse 10 (from 1959: TAKI) with Härder as theater manager. In the same year an AKI opened in Neukölln in a former film theater.
AKI news cinema at the zoo ( Location )	Hardenbergstrasse 27a	1960-1993	The new AKI am Zoo in Hardenbergstrasse was built diagonally across from the Zoo station and Zoo Palast in the Schimmelpfeng-Haus by the architectural group Paul Schwebes & Hans Schoszberger and opened in 1960, also with Karl-Heinz Härder as theater director. It was run as a contemporary cinema until around 1982 and then converted into a Lux Intim sex cinema , which it was until around 1993. Carpet Kibek's shop was also located there until 1995 . After that all buildings were demolished. Today you can find the Zoofenster high-rise building with the Zoofenster hotel complex, which was built from 2008 to 2012.
Akme-Lichtspiele (Korso-Lichtspielhaus, Kaiser-Kino) ( Location )	Bismarckstrasse 84	1915-1964	The Korso-Lichtspielhaus was set up as the Kaiser cinema in 1918 in Bismarckstraße 84 in Charlottenburg. At that time, the Kaiser-Säle inn was located next to it . In 1934 the building police requested the installation of further exits to the cinema. The operators finally agreed with the construction police on the installation of an iron ladder for the demonstrator from the second floor to the top floor as an exit and on putting the ticket booth on wheels. The cinema was badly damaged during the war and then rebuilt in-house and reopened in 1949 as AKME-Lichtspiele . The cinema was in operation until 1964 and then closed. Today there are only shops on the ground floor of the house.
Alhambra (Bonbonniere, Emelka Palace) ( Location )	Kurfürstendamm 68	1921-1952	In 1921–1922, Max Bischoff and Fritz Wilms built a new residential and commercial building with a cinema wing in the two-story central wing on Kurfürstendamm 68 , in which a movie theater opened on February 23, 1922. (Client: Czutzka & Co. GmbH) The stucco work was done by Friedrich August Kraus. The cinema existed as a rectangular auditorium with a circumferential tier and had 1014 seats (668 parquet, 336 tier). 1928–1929 a renovation was carried out by Siegfried Ittelson, the construction management was carried out by Wilhelm Bischoff. The house itself was converted into the Hotel Alhambra. It was given a porch with backlit opal glass walls and showcases, above which a name made out of air letters. Then there were modifications by Gustav Neustein and Werner Anke. During the Second World War, the house was partially destroyed, as was the cinema. 1948–1949 the conversion of the former foyer into the “Bonbonniere” cinema with 300 seats was carried out by H. Remmelmann and Fritz Gaulke. In 1952 the cinema was closed and after reconstruction the house was converted into a pure hotel under the name Tusculum . The Bonbonniere cinema hall was temporarily used as a dance bar Petit Palais , which was designed by Gerhard Fritsche ; then as the dining room of the Hotel Kurfürstendamm on Adenauerplatz (most recently training center for the hotel and catering industry). The former hotel was empty from 2009 and has been converted into an office building since 2015. The world premiere of the first sound film (The Arsonist) took place in the Alhambra on September 17, 1922 . The engineers Jo Benedict Engl, Joseph Massolle and Hans Vogt developed the Tri-Ergon optical sound system in a Berlin studio. A plaque on the house has been a reminder of this since 1964.
Amor light plays (Dolly light plays, Apollo light plays) ( Location )	Kaiser-Friedrich-Strasse 103	1912-1966	Approx. In 1912 the Apollo-Lichtspiele, called Dolly-Lichtspiele from 1926, opened in Kaiser-Friedrich-Strasse 103 / corner Lohmeyerstrasse . Around 1935 the cinema was given the name Amor-Lichtspiele, which it was to carry until it closed in 1966. Today the GPVA work project is located there.
Astor Filmlounge (Filmpalast, Ufa-Palast, Ufa-Pavillon, Kiki) ( Location )	Kurfürstendamm 225	since 1948	As early as 1912 there were plans by the architects Ludwig Guttmann and Richard S. Seelig to redesign the building erected in 1895/896, but they were never realized. Instead, the Berliner Kindl-Bräu restaurant was set up in the neighboring house . After the war, in 1948, the plans were taken up again and a cinema with 318 seats was set up in the Slevogt hall of the restaurant, named after the murals designed by Max Slevogt , which was named KiKi (Kino im Kindl). In 1951, the cinema architect Gerhard Fritsche made a renovation so that it had 668 seats. It was also given its shape with the distinctive horseshoe-shaped canopy, the courtyard passage with showcases, the foyer with the sales counter and the cinema hall with the curved, shell-shaped ceiling construction. The cinema is a listed building monument. In 1957, UFA leased the cinema and named it the Ufa Pavilion . 1963–1964 the architect Wolfgang Rasper carried out further renovations. In 1972 it was renamed UFA-Palast and a temporary decline, which led to the closure of the cinema in the 1980s. On November 29, 1988, after being taken over by Hans-Joachim Flebbe, it was reopened under the name Film-Palast Berlin under the direction of CinemaxX AG. Due to its somewhat remote location, the cinema location survived the pressure of the chain of stores in the textile business. After the lease expired in 2008, Flebbe took over the facility under his own responsibility and opened the premium cinema Astor Filmlounge on December 23, 2008. The cinema, which once had 660 viewers, now offered 250 comfortable armchairs. The conversion costs amounted to 800,000 euros, but the entrance fees are between ten and 15 euros per performance. The cinema has all possible projection techniques, both analogue and digital and for three-dimensional films.

Capitol at the zoo ( Location )	Budapester Strasse 42-46	1925-1943	The building with 1,300 seats, built by Hans Poelzig in a modern style in 1925/1926 , was in stark contrast to the neo-romantic buildings of the “Romanisches Forum” on what was then Auguste-Viktoria-Platz with the Ufa Palace at the zoo and the Gloria Palace . The interior was designed by Poelzig in an expressionist manner into an imposing festival structure. The hexagonal cinema was closed off by an octagonal , high ceiling. The color scheme was graded from bottom to top, ranging from deep violet to violet-red, golden brown , ocher and light Indian yellow . In addition to the cinema organ , the retractable orchestra pit was a special feature.

On April 21, 1950, the French cultural center Maison de France was officially opened by the French city commander General Jean Ganeval in the presence of the High Commissioner for Germany André François-Poncet and the Lord Mayor Ernst Reuter . The Cinema Paris has existed since the house opened in 1950 and is one of the few remaining Kurfürstendamm cinemas. The program focuses on French productions and European cinematography, most of which are shown in the original version with subtitles . In 1992 the building was acquired by the French state and extensive construction work was carried out, so that the building was included as the 1000th entry in the Berlier monuments list. The cinema has been operated by the Yorck Group since 1994 , at the beginning with cinema legend Walter Jonigkeit (1907–2009).

However, it is operated independently by Delphi Filmtheater Betriebs GmbH . The film theater was built in 1927/1928 as a DELPHI-Palast dance hall based on plans by Bernhard Sehring , who also designed the neighboring Theater des Westens . As early as 1925, Sehring planned to transform it into a cinema palace, but it was not until 1948/49 that it was rebuilt in a simplified manner under the direction of Walter Jonigkeit (1907–2009), who had leased the theater for 25 years. Columns and figures that were not rebuilt were buried in the front yard. It opened on January 3, 1949 with the film Lord Nelson Last Love . At that time it had the largest screen and the most modern technical equipment in Berlin. The house was the first venue for the second Berlinale in 1952 . In 1957 the then newly built Zoo Palast became the central competition cinema of the Berlinale. With the construction of other cinemas in the vicinity of the Delphi Filmpalast and the spread of television, the cinema came under pressure in the 1960s. In 1964, out of concern for the traditional venue, the then Charlottenburg district acquired the property. It was not until 1980 that games started to pick up again. The Berlin Senator for Culture was looking for a state-owned large cinema that could be used as a festival theater. In 1981 the cinema was first converted. In the same year the first forum for young film at the Berlinale was held. On April 24, 2007, Walter Jonigkeit celebrated his 100th birthday as the still active director of the cinema, who came to his office above the cinema hall every day.

Film stage Mali ( Location )	Neufertstrasse 19-21	1932-1968	The building on Klausenerplatz in Neufertstraße 19-21 (formerly Magazinstraße 7) was built in 1896 as a riding hall for the Queen Elisabeth Guard Grenadier Regiment No. 3 by F. W. Bastian and Ernst Gerhard and then served as an emergency church from 1923 to 1932. In 1932, F. W. Bastian converted the hall into a theater with 520 seats and added a foyer in an extension. The name "Mali" was probably based on the street name and was the short form for magazine light games. The cinema survived the Second World War with almost no damage. In 1949 it was redesigned and renovated by Peter Schwiertz. Another renovation was carried out in 1956 by Bruno Meltendorf, which was converted to Cinemascope and reduced to 349 seats. In 1967 A. Gabrunas took over the cinema, but had to close it in 1968. From 1970 to 2013 there was an Aldi supermarket in the building, after which an organic market moved in after renovation.

Filmbühne Wien (Ufa-Theater Kurfürstendamm, Union-Palast Kurfürstendamm, UT-Lichtspiele) ( Location )	Kurfürstendamm 26	1913-2000	The house was built between 1912 and 1913 as the Union Palace in the style of Wilhelminian classicism and was one of the first pure film theaters in Berlin. The architects Nentwich & Simon designed a temple-like facade with Ionic columns and gables. The movie theater opened with Max Reinhardt's silent film Insel der Seligen . In addition to the 850-seat cinema, the building also housed the new Café des Westens , which was operated as a concert café. The cinema has belonged to UFA since 1924 and has hosted numerous film premieres. In 1945 the name was changed to Filmbühne Wien. A first renovation followed in 1953, when the representative entrance had to give way to shops. After Heinz Riech took over the Ufa cinemas in 1972, box cinemas were added to the large hall by separating former boxes and using the formerly spacious Foyer 7 at the end of the 1970s . The cinema had Berlin's first Cinemascope screen and was at times one of the venues for the Berlinale .
Filmkunst 66 (Capri, Bleibtreulichtspiele) ( Location )	Bleibtreustraße 12	since 1951	In 1951, Willi Schreiber built the Bleibtreu-Lichtspiele (BeLi) in a low-rise building on a rubble site on the corner of Bleibtreustraße and Niebuhrstraße, a gem of the early 1950s. The single-storey low-rise building was particularly emphasized by the flat gable field, which is drawn higher at the beveled corner, the smooth wall surfaces of which are only adorned by a display case and an advertising panel. The side is crowned by the BeLi , which is enclosed in a circle of light , while “Bleibtreu” and “Lichtspiele” are written above the two entrances. From 1954 the name Capri is used for the cinema . In 1966 the Capri Hall was rebuilt by Simon Buntz and Philipp Kröner and the name was changed to "Filmkunst 66" and the front was rebuilt. The gable field disappeared and the facade was clad in black. The entrance was given a lantern with “66” as a sign of identification. From 1966 to 1971 three operators tried the cinema, the last also with sex films.

Gloria palace ( Location )	Kurfürstendamm 10	1926-1943	After tough negotiations and the assurance to open an “elegant” movie theater, a contract was signed between the director of the Gloria film company Hanns Lippmann and the owners of the First Romanisches Haus . From November 1924, the architects Ernst Lessing and Max Bremer took over the planning of the new Gloria Palace in a neo-baroque style, which reflects Lippmann's ideas for a dignified, representative setting that is based on the theater building. In September 1925, the installation of the cinema begins with gutting work and the installation of a prefabricated steel structure for the cinema, which extends over the rooms of Café Trumpf in the inner courtyard of the building from the first to the third floor.

On April 1, 1930, the film The Blue Angel and on August 15, the film Under the Roofs of Paris by René Clair premiered in the Gloria Palast . The house offered a now hardly imaginable display of magnificence with seven staircases, three elevators, a mirrored winter garden, conversation and writing rooms, walkways with cloakrooms and buffets, crystal chandeliers, marble steps, silk-covered walls, which provided a glamorous setting for premieres. Since the Romanesque facade of the building was under monument protection, the cinema could only appear very discreetly and was not allowed to put up any advertising on the upper floors. Only after further negotiations did the UFA receive permission for modest illuminated advertising. The lettering “GLORIA PALAST” could be placed behind the arched windows on the first and second floors. The name of the cinema also appeared on the roof on three sides. Allied air raids in November 1943 and a subsequent fire destroyed the cinema.

However, it was not the existing UFA that awarded the building contract, but rather the Thomas & Co theater company with managing director Max Knapp , which had been successful in Wedding since the 1920s . On January 2, 1953, the new “Gloria Palast” opened with 900 seats, just a few meters from the old venue.

A year later, a small hall, the Gloriette , was added in the basement. In 1986 both halls were completely rebuilt in connection with the construction of the Gloria-Passage . The cinema closed on August 15, 1998. The restored foyer with the ticket booth and the spiral staircase as well as the also listed neon sign on the facade of the former cinema have been preserved. In September 2008, the jeans label Replay opened its second store in Berlin in the former cinema. In 2015/16, the new owner submitted an application for (partial) demolition and renovation or new construction by means of an expert opinion that shows the facade from the 1950s was no longer stable.

The external appearance is similar to other movie theaters designed by Wils, e.g. B. the Mercedes-Palast in Berlin-Wedding or the Mercedes-Palast in Berlin-Neukölln . In the hall, a belt of boxes divides the high parquet from the rest of the hall area, which exudes an elegant touch thanks to the gray pilasters with silver-colored capitals and the yellow wall surfaces. Finally, the light green walls of the stage area are decorated with tree motifs reminiscent of chinoiserie . The cinema was originally planned as the "Alhambra", but then probably opened as "Piccadilly" due to the fact that it had the same name as the "Alhambra" on Kurfürstendamm. The air conditioning and ventilation were exemplary for the time, the 1400 seats in the cinema could be cleared via ten exits within a very short time. The building was damaged by Allied air raids on November 22, 1943 , and in 1948 it was converted into the “Bismarckbad”. From 1953 to 1955 there was a project to restore it as a "Metropol-Theater" by Fritz Wilms, but it was never realized. Then the building was demolished.

The cinema was built by Gustav Seibt. Because the hall was in the side wing towards Schulstrasse, it was unusually long. In order to still be able to use the hall, a transparent screen was hung in the middle and the audience was placed on both sides. Half saw the films mirrored. In 1917 this type of projection was abandoned and the hall was divided. Conversions took place in 1911 (Fritz Lieschka), 1917 (Fritz Rauch) and 1927 (Paul Überholz). In 1935 the name was changed to Rheingold-Lichtspiele. The house survived the war without damage, so that the cinema was soon able to resume operations.

The Royal Palace was designed and built by Helmut Hentrich , Hubert Petschnigg and Klaus Heese . Originally the cinema only had two halls, named Royal Palast and City . The name was given by a reader survey in the Berlin tabloid BZ. The smaller City Hall was opened on May 21, 1965, followed by the Royal Palace on August 5, 1965. The 120-degree, 420-square-meter projection screen of the Royal Palace was the one at that time largest curved screen in the world, which was covered by Berlin's largest curtain. The opening film was the George Stevens production The Greatest Story of All Time . In 1983 the cinema was expanded to include three more smaller halls, and the entire cinema complex was given the common name Royal Palast . The Royal Palast had to close on April 28, 2004 under competitive pressure from the numerous multiplex cinemas opened in Berlin. The building complex was demolished two years later as part of the modernization of the Europa Center. Since 2007 there is an electronics store in its place.
