Munich Film Museum, Film museum in Münchner Altstadt, Germany.
The Munich Film Museum operates within the Munich Stadtmuseum and features a 165-seat cinema. It screens films in both digital and analog formats, frequently presenting works in their original language with subtitles.
The institution was founded in 1963 as a department of the Munich Stadtmuseum. It developed into one of Germany's significant centers for film study and archival preservation.
The museum displays works by German filmmakers who emigrated and productions from the New German Cinema movement. This collection allows visitors to experience different periods of German cinema on their own terms.
Screenings take place in a single auditorium, so it is helpful to check times in advance. The entrance is located on the ground floor of the Stadtmuseum and is easy to access.
During silent film screenings, musicians perform live accompaniment to the scenes. This practice is based on detailed research into original compositions and newly created scores.
