CineStar Erfurt

Hirschlachufer 7, 99084 Erfurt

On the Hirschlachufer in Erfurt, the Thuringian state capital, CineStar sits near the banks of the Gera river in a city whose medieval old town is among the best-preserved in Germany. The Krämerbrücke — a bridge lined with inhabited timber-frame houses — and the twin churches of the Domberg lend Erfurt a storybook quality that few German cities can match. The cinema serves as a modern counterpoint to all this antiquity, offering comfortable screens and current programming to audiences who might have spent the afternoon wandering cobblestone lanes. Erfurt's position at the crossroads of Thuringia makes it a natural gathering point, and the CineStar draws visitors from well beyond the city limits. The surrounding riverbank area has a pleasant, walkable character that encourages a leisurely approach to an evening out. It is a cinema that benefits immeasurably from the beauty of its city.
