CinemaxX Heilbronn

Berliner Pl. 12/K3, 74072 Heilbronn

On the banks of the Neckar in Heilbronn, a city whose wine-growing tradition reaches back centuries, CinemaxX occupies a modern complex at Berliner Platz. The K3 building in which it sits is part of the city's post-war reconstruction fabric, a practical rather than picturesque setting that nonetheless places the cinema at the heart of civic life. MaxXimum Sound and digital screens serve an audience from the city and its surrounding wine villages. Heilbronn's Experimenta science centre and the recently opened Bundesgartenschau grounds have brought fresh energy to the city, and the cinema benefits from this renewed sense of purpose. It is a straightforward, well-equipped multiplex in a city that is learning to see itself anew.
