Ufa-Palast am Grindel, Movie theater in Grindel district, Hamburg, Germany

The Ufa-Palast am Grindel was a cinema in Hamburg featuring a main auditorium with approximately 750 seats and a large projection screen. The building contained multiple screening rooms and was located at the Grindelberg intersection near the university.

The Grindel-Filmtheater opened in late November 1959, designed by cinema architect Joachim Glüer with Gerd W. Blaettchen for operator Oskar Peter Freiberger. Its hall seated 753 and later grew to 1885 places. In 1963 it was rebuilt around a 27 × 10 m screen, then the largest in Hamburg. UFA took over in the mid-1970s, adding two halls in 1975; a 1995 rebuild created a multiplex, and the last screening was on 26 March 2008.

Locals called it simply "das Grindel", and its proximity to the University of Hamburg made students, teenagers and other young people its regular audience. Press screenings were held there for years, with Hollywood productions such as Troy shown to journalists before release. After the City cinema closed in 2001, its Tuesday-night sneak preview moved here, joining the Wednesday German sneak preview already running.

The cinema stood at Grindelberg 7a, facing the Grindelhochhäuser, on a site later partly occupied by a drugstore and flats. Its position near the University of Hamburg brought a regular student and teenage audience, and press screenings of films such as Troy were held here.

The final film screening took place on March 26, 2008, even though many people had signed a petition to stop the closure. The venue disappeared from the city despite these efforts to save it.
