Located in the St. Pauli district of the city centre, in front of the famed Reeperbahn. The Lichtspielhaus Millerntor was built in 1911 to the plans of architects Franz Jacobsen & Georg Radel. It was opened in 1912 and operated by Freiedrich Paul Stolze of Millerntor Theater GmbH/Ufa Konzern. In 1929 a Klangfilm sound system was installed. The cinema was modernized in 1932.
In 1940 the Millernor Lichtspielhaus was re-named Ufa Millerntor Theater. In 1943 it was heavily damaged by Allied bombs during World War II and was closed.
