Cineplex Memmingen

Fraunhoferstraße 21, 87700 Memmingen

Memmingen, a handsome Swabian town at the gateway to the Allgaeu Alps, preserves one of the finest medieval old towns in southern Germany, its walls and watchtowers still largely intact. The Cineplex on Fraunhoferstrasse serves a community positioned between the Alpine tourism industry and the agricultural wealth of the Iller valley. The town played a notable role in the German Peasants' War of 1525, when the Twelve Articles -- often called the first European declaration of human rights -- were drafted here. For a town with such a legacy of bold declarations, a cinema seems a fitting venue for the continuation of public discourse through narrative.
