Open-air cinema with a unique atmosphere
As dusk falls over the old town, a unique mix of anticipation, audience atmosphere, and summer feeling creates exactly what makes open-air cinema so popular in the Schwarzes Kloster courtyard. The film start is determined by darkness; from August 5 to 11, it is 9:15 PM. ([visit.freiburg.de](https://visit.freiburg.de/sommernachtskino-im-schwarzen-kloster))

Location, arrival, and practical notes
The venue is the Schwarzes Kloster, Rotteckring 12 in 79098 Freiburg. The entrance is located in the alley opposite C&A, between the adult education center and Café Schwarzes Kloster. In case of uncertain or rainy weather, a decision will be made on the event day whether the show will take place; weatherproof clothing is therefore essential to the planning.
