Movie theater Europa Varšavska 3 www.kinoeuropa.hr info@kinoeuropa.hr +385 1 48 72 888 +385 1 45 93 691   Cinema Europa is Zagreb’s cult cinema. It was built in 1924/25 by the wealthy Müller family from Zagreb and designed by architect Srećko Florschütz with the aim of constructing the most beautiful, important and modern cinema in the region. Cinema Europa was officially opened on 8 April 1925 with Fritz Lang’s Die Niebelungen and the local film Dalmatia, Land of Sun. The City of Zagreb acquired it in October 2007 after a successful action by Zagreb Film Festival and Croatian Film Association 'Daj mi kino' (Give Me the Cinema). The Croatian film and cultural public and all film aficionados appealed to the city government to acquire this theatre and allocate it for use to cinematic purposes. Early in 2008, Cinema Europa management was trusted to Zagreb Film Festival, with the goal of making this cinema the regional centre of film and film art. In 2013 the Ministry of Culture reached a decision to make Cinema Europa a protected cultural heritage site and Republic of Croatia national treasure. The cinema’s interior and its lavish stucco decorations and post-Art Nouveau classicist details are considered one of the city’s most beautiful spaces. The cinema premises include: - Large hall with 500 seats - Müller hall with 41 seats - Cinema shop – film bookstore and gift shop - Bar – a place for the audience to gather and mingle before and after the screenings - Zagreb Film Festival office Cinema Europa’s programs are co-funded by the Zagreb City Office for Education, Culture and Sport, Croatian Audiovisual Centre and Europa Cinemas network.
