Cineplex Kulmbach

Kressenstein 21, 95326 Kulmbach

Kulmbach, an Upper Franconian town crowned by the massive Plassenburg fortress, is known throughout Germany for its brewing tradition -- the annual Bierwoche is one of Franconia's great folk festivals. The Cineplex on Kressenstein serves a community whose identity is bound up with hops, malt, and the surrounding Franconian Switzerland landscape of limestone cliffs and castle ruins. The town's compact centre, dominated by the fortress silhouette, gives even routine errands a vaguely medieval grandeur. An evening at the cinema here is inseparable from the walk through narrow streets where the scent of malt from the breweries still hangs in the air.
