The Groß-Gerau cinema event becomes a cultural summer highlight
Groß-Gerau. A radiant summer evening, a historic setting, and a great film: More than 400 visitors enjoyed an atmospheric open-air cinema in the courtyard of Dornberg Castle . The open-air film weekend took place for the fifth time since 2021 and the second time in a row – and has long since established itself as a fixture in the city's cultural calendar.
In front of the imposing castle facade, a ten-by-five-meter screen provided a true open-air cinema experience. The event was organized by the city of Groß-Gerau in cooperation with the Lichtspielhaus cinema and the Cinebar Groß-Gerau .
Two film evenings with a great response
