Delphi Filmpalast

Delphi Filmpalast is a cinema housed in a building styled like a temple, decorated with stone lions and ornamental vases on its exterior. Inside, multiple auditoriums contain over 600 seats total and feature current projection technology including 4K laser systems.

The building was completed and opened in 1896 based on architect Bernhard Sehring's design. Following damage during World War II, restorer Walter Jonigkeit rebuilt the structure, which reopened in 1949.

The cinema functions as a key venue for major film festivals and premiere events in the city, bringing together filmmakers and audiences. The halls continue to host special screenings and cultural programs that draw film enthusiasts from across the region.

The cinema is located at Kantstrasse 12a in Berlin and is easily accessible by public transport, especially from Zoologischer Garten station nearby. The area is well served by buses and trains making arrival straightforward for visitors.

Few cinemas in Germany retain the ability to project 70mm film, making this venue particularly special for film enthusiasts. In the basement sits the Quasimodo jazz club, which brings live music performances to the location.
