Museum Lichtspiele

Museum Lichtspiele is a cinema located in the Giesing neighborhood of Munich, housed in a classical building at Lilienstraße 2. The theater presents both current films and classic movies in their original languages and dubbed versions.

The cinema was founded in 1910, making it one of Munich's earliest movie theaters. It has remained a fixture in the city's entertainment life ever since.

The cinema hosts weekly screenings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, attracting a loyal group of repeat visitors who return for the same film. This tradition has become deeply woven into Munich's film-watching culture.

You can reach the theater by S-Bahn trains to either Isartorplatz or Rosenheimerplatz stations, both within walking distance of the building. The cinema opens 15 minutes before the first screening of the day.

The cinema hosts special events that combine film screenings with Bavarian food and beer. This pairing of cinema with local food traditions sets it apart from other movie theaters.
