Piotrek from Warsaw

About me I'm Piotrek. I live in Warsaw but I spend a lot of time abroad on business trips or city breaks in other European cities, and whenever I can on longer trips. As you can guess my hobby is travelling :-). While travelling I like trying local cuisine, getting to know the place's culture and of course meeting locals. Why Warsaw? I love Warsaw because it h...

Kinoteka Warsaw

Not a typical multiplex cinema25

""Kinoteka" Warsaw in the Palace of Culture is not just another multiplex cinema. Anything but that! The cinema is also part of the Europa Cinema network."

When you check movie times in Warsaw cinemas, you might think Kinoteka is just another multiplex cinema. But you're wrong, it's anything but that!

First of all, it's located in the city's most iconic building - Palace of Culture and Science, with an entrance on Al. Jerozolimskie, which is now a listed building. Like in other parts of this building, in Kinoteka you can also expect to see some original halls designed in social realism style. That's especially true upstairs, therefore even if your movie is screened in one of the bigger rooms (number 1 - 4), make sure to see the corridors leading to smaller rooms located on the first and second floor.

The repertoire is varied and consists of both more commercial Polish and international features, as well as more ambitious European productions since the cinema is part of the Europa Cinema network.

Thanks to the special atmosphere and lower than average ticket prices Kinoteka is always my first choice when I want to go to the movies.
