About
The founding cinema of the Yorck Group stands for everything we believe in: stylish cinema culture with excellent technical equipment, seating comfort and visual freedom, plus first-class, hand-picked films.
History
In 1978, Georg Kloster and Knut Steenwerth, together with Manfred Salzgeber and Christian Meincke, saved the local cinema from imminent closure. With an ambitious program, the cinema experienced a rapid upswing in admissions. The lively attendance also ensured that a number of pubs were established in the immediate vicinity on Yorckstrasse, which for a time formed part of the so-called "Trampelpfad" for night owls. In addition to arthouse films and independent U.S. productions, Berlin's largest youth film programming runs here every morning. The Yorck theater is still popular with audiences not only because of its outstanding selection of films - its wonderfully comfortable cinema seats are also legendary and a "tangible" success factor for an enjoyable movie night.
