Am Steinheimer Tor 17, 63450 Hanau
KINOPOLIS Hanau sits at Am Steinheimer Tor, a commercial district built around the historic gateway that once marked the passage between the old town and the neighbouring district of Steinheim. Hanau, the self-proclaimed Brothers Grimm City where Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were born, lends a fairy-tale undertone to a cinema that otherwise deals squarely in modern multiplex entertainment. Eight screens with 998 seats serve the eastern Rhine-Main region, drawing audiences from the surrounding Main-Kinzig district as well as the city itself. The largest hall seats 318, providing the scale for blockbuster premieres, while smaller 76-seat rooms create a more intimate setting for quieter titles. The cinema is part of Hanau's post-war commercial redevelopment around the Steinheimer Tor, which today combines shopping, dining, and entertainment in the compact urban manner typical of Hessian market towns. For a city at the start of the German Fairy Tale Route, the KINOPOLIS ensures that storytelling continues — even if the medium has evolved from the printed page to the projected image.
