Magdeburg Entertainment

  1. Café & Klub Luise

    There's a young and relaxed vibe to this ever-so-slightly retro café where, despite the menu, most come to drink. The club below has a wide-ranging programme, from house, indie and '60s flower power, to karaoke and table tennis competitions.

  2. Café Central

    Echoing the historic street on which it stands, this hip bar-cum-literary salon recreates the early 1900s, with velvet sofas, flock wallpaper and Persian carpets - all genuinely antique. There's comedy, public readings, films or lectures on many evenings, but the decor means it's always worth a visit.
