Delphi Filmpalast

About this cinema

The Delphi opened in 1949 inside a 1927/28 dance hall designed by architect Bernhard Sehring, rebuilt after wartime bomb damage closed it from 1943. Seating was reduced from around 1,200 to roughly 725 in a 1981 renovation; the building is a listed Berlin landmark, and Yorck Kinogruppe runs it today.

One of the few German cinemas still equipped for 70mm projection, the Delphi has hosted Berlinale premieres since the festival's second edition in 1952 and mixes original-version, subtitled and dubbed screenings. The jazz club Quasimodo shares the basement, and renowned filmmakers regularly appear for post-screening talks.
