Rundkino, Movie theater and cultural heritage monument on Prager Straße, Dresden, Germany
The Rundkino features a cylindrical structure measuring 50 meters in diameter with extensive glass facades and aluminum panel cladding on its upper section.
The cinema opened on October 7, 1972, as the first cylindrical building for public use in the German Democratic Republic, reflecting the architectural vision of post-war modernism.
The main auditorium contains the largest cinema screen in Saxony and previously served as a lecture hall for Technical University Dresden events.
The facility houses seven screening rooms with a total capacity of 1,442 seats, offering digital projection and Dolby Surround sound systems for current releases.
The roof construction employs 96 steel cables in a suspension system supporting concrete elements, creating an engineering solution for the circular design.
