8. Cincinnati
The lobby of the Gibson Hotel which Alma reserves for Beth’s first big chess tournament is filmed in the Spandau Town Hall in Spandau, located on the west side of Berlin. The town hall was built in 1910 and designed by Heinrich Reinhardt and Georg Süßenguth. The exterior is quite stately, almost resembling a train station with a central clock tower. The chess tournament in Cincinnati is filmed at the Meistersaal, built in 1910 as a chamber music concert hall.
