Film stories about the cinematheque

Public city walk "Filmstadt Berlin"

Varieté Apollo Theater, Friedrichstraße 218 (Friedrichstadt, heute: Mitte, Foto: 1905)

The area around Friedrichstraße is a central location in film history and at the same time a walk-in attraction: pioneers of German film worked here, film policy was made and numerous films were shot. At the same time, the area's cultural life was shaped by the entertainment palaces of the Weimar era and later by techno clubs after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

The tour begins at the new location of the Kinemathek in the E-Werk and leads through the surrounding neighborhood, which was once known as the "film district". Stops are selected places of filmmaking and international film locations that show the area in a new light.Translated with DeepL
