Summer Cinema under Bamberg's Sky: The Openair Cinema in Kreuzgarten
When the Kreuzgarten at Michaelsberg transforms into an open-air stage for film art, a rare stage experience is created that does not rely on curtains and proscenium but on evening air, historic backdrop, and shared wonder. The screening of The School of Magical Animals 4 is scheduled for May 30, 2026, at 4:00 PM; doors open at 3:30 PM. Admission is sponsored by local sponsors, seating is free, and there are 150 seats available per film.

A Place That Becomes a Scene
The Kreuzgarten at St. Michael's Monastery is situated high above the city and exudes the aura of a place where history and the present intertwine seamlessly. The baroque monastery complex with its far-reaching panoramic view creates a theater atmosphere that transforms even a cinema afternoon into a cultural event. Those who take a seat here not only experience a film but a harmonious interplay of architecture, light, and audience reaction.

The Michaelsberg as a Backdrop for Great Images

The baroque garden and the location on the Michaelsberg provide the event with that special tranquility that makes a summer evening in the cinema unforgettable. Here, cinema atmosphere meets World Heritage flair. ([bamberg.info](https://www.bamberg.info/poi/kloster_st_michael-4637/?utm_source=openai))
