Kreyenbrucker Cinema

The Kreyenbrucker Cinema opened its doors on December 12, 1954 by Helmut Haßfurther, featuring a capacity of 314 foam rubber padded seats, gold-colored plastic walls, and two Bauer machines alongside a Telefunken sound system.

Helmut operated the theatre for most of its life, with the exception of a brief 1978 moment. Siegfried Balschukat of Hatten took over the theatre from Helmut in 1986, who downgraded its capacity to 200 seats, and closed the theatre in July 1992.

On August 13, 1992, Andreas Brünker of Bremen reopened the theatre as an arthouse known as the “Muwi Cinema”. Lutz Becker then took the theatre over two years later in 1994, and he closed the theatre in 1999. For several years, everything still stands inside.

After Haßfurther’s death in 2004, the idea of ​​reopening the theatre as a post-production theatre arose again. Unfortunately, the community of their heirs sold the building to an investor who unfortunately converted one of the last functional cinema buildings from the 1950’s still standing in northern Germany and was barely remodeled into a carpet shop.
