Kölner Filmhaus, Cinema and film education center in Neustadt-Nord, Cologne, Germany
The Kölner Filmhaus is a cinema and film education center located in a protected heritage building in Cologne's Neustadt-Nord district. It features multiple screening spaces for independent and international cinema, as well as rental areas for seminars, offices, and events.
The institution was founded in 1981, initially operating in a restaurant backroom before relocating to a former administrative building in 1998. Following extensive renovations, it reopened in October 2021.
The venue serves as a gathering place for filmmakers and audiences interested in independent and international cinema. Regular discussions, workshops, and exchange formats keep the local film community engaged and connected.
The facility is located at Maybachstraße 111 and is easily accessible by public transportation. The venue provides comfortable spaces for screening films and hosting educational events of various kinds.
The building itself is a former administrative office that was deliberately transformed into a film culture venue, preserving a distinctive character in the process. This architectural conversion makes the place more than just a cinema.
