KULTUR im Oberbräu

Description

The KULTUR im Oberbräu has been combining theater, cinema, cabaret, music, readings, exhibitions, culinary delights and much more under one roof since 2010.

The KULTUR im Oberbräu, a municipal house of culture, is located in the heart of Holzkirchen in the district of Miesbach, a few meters from the market square. The Kulturhaus is easily accessible by public transportation; a public underground parking garage is located in the immediate vicinity. The KULTUR im Oberbräu occupies different premises: a large festival hall, a smaller theater hall (FoolsTheater), a cinema, a rehearsal room, a foyer and a bistro. Under the motto: 'Every day new, colorful, different!' culture is to be made accessible to all: in addition to regular evening events, there is an appealing children's and seniors' program in the afternoons. In addition to the generally inexpensive rates, discounts are offered for people with disabilities as well as pupils, trainees and students.
