Bahnhofstraße 50-52, 71332 Waiblingen
Waiblingen's first purpose-built cinema, the 630-seat Staufen-Theater, opened in the side wing of a commercial block on Bahnhofstraße on 24 January 1956, and the little Piccolo was added next door in 1961. Heinz Lochmann bought the site in 1998, rebuilt the whole fabric with added storeys and infill, and opened the Traumpalast hall by hall between December 1999 and July 2000. Eight screens and around 1,000 seats came out of that. Salome is the 270-seat flagship in blue, with forged metal blossoms on the walls; Athina sits under a ceiling of slowly swinging lights; Theatro, the former Piccolo, is fitted out as a red theatre salon; and Clou was the bistro until 2008. Programming is first-run and largely dubbed, but Wednesday evenings belong to Kommunales Kino Waiblingen e. V., which runs its own selection in the house.

The flagship room, in deep blue, with wrought-metal blossoms on the walls.

Greek in theme: columns along the walls and a star ceiling of gently swinging lights.

Done like a theatre: red salon seating, columns, gilt ornament and a heavy stage curtain.

Oriental in feel, with huge temple-like figures on the walls.

Wrought lamps in warm reds that read like flowers from somewhere else.

A snug room in dark blue, with stars in more places than the wall.

Until 2008 this room was a bistro; now it is a green-furnished hall with a living-room feel.

The smallest room, decorated like a racetrack.
