Suggestions for History Museum near Friedrichstadt, Berlin

Maria K. • August 30, 2015Museum under the Holocaust memorial. Worth a visit. Learning about the fates of particular Jewish families and individuals will give you goose bumps.

Kirby M. • October 1, 2014You have to see this installation - it really is amazing. Transports you back to a divided Berlin.

J T. • October 11, 2016Amazing museum. If you can't go over all photos, they also sell picture books containing all exhibits.

Jamie B. • December 6, 2015The exterior, great photos at dusk

Bart S. • November 26, 2018A very realistic view and representation of the divide of the city and how it impacted life in Berlin.

Mohammed G. • December 23, 2016History geeks will love this museum. Covers German history from Charlemagne till German-reunification and the different aspects of life throughout. Only downside is organization is a bit confusing.

Artemi M. • January 3, 2019Lovely exhibitions, very interesting, with a slight caveat: very little sense of continuity between the halls and the exhibitions. Overall absolutely worth it.

Semira M. • February 8, 2014Subjectively speaking, it is the best museum of Berlin! Aesthetics all around! The collection is really rich and fascinating!

Emiliano V. • September 25, 2016My favorite museum in Berlin. Is a must if you are there. Be aware that the Pergammon is close until 2017 but there are plenty other things to see.

Sandra B. • August 9, 2016Amazing museum!!Take your time - at least 2 hours(or more)it's so much information and things to see and listen to!If you only can make one museum visit-do this one!!You feel 100times more educated!❤️

No4emi G. • December 28, 2018Great museum to learn about the history of the city, and it’s especially crazy to think it is in an actual bunker.

DSquirrely • November 29, 2013It's worth the cost for sure. Lots of great pieces and very easy to navigate if you only speak English.

Anwar • September 29, 2014Compact but very worth visiting! Very accessible for young people as well!

Henning R. • November 24, 2017The exhibition describes the history of Checkpoint Charlie with the tank confrontation from 1961 as well as the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall. It is both informative and entertaining!

DoubleDeuce • October 29, 2018This place was a ton of weird fun with nifty, old stuff, little espionage games and a dress-up-like-a-spy section. Perfect for a date or a silly afternoon with friends. A cafe at the end too!

Lennart H. • February 12, 2019Had a great and informative few hours in here. Defenitly recommend the audio guide to get some funny and well made audio comments.

Lena R. • August 28, 2016Get a tour - you'll learn a lot about the classical GDR cardboard car ;)

Domnule O. • July 18, 2015Easy to find and interesting. You can take a picture and pay in dollars or euros. The museum is very informative as well.

Louise d. • August 12, 2014Info over de muur en gratis koffie en wc's

Sammy C. • September 9, 2015Worth visiting this on a walking tour to learn about the History. You can book a walking tour for under €15 through Berlin walking tours.

Amanda G. • February 25, 2015Really interesting museum if you like typography as I like. It's not that big, but you can spend like an hour there... Fair ticket price.

Michael B. • January 6, 2019Free museum. One of the only houses that remained undestroyed after WW2. Interesting but not fantastic.

Raphael L. • October 22, 2018Small and under appreciated park with a much more interesting history than most other parks. Worth a visit!

Bert V. • April 24, 2013Must visit if you like old motorbikes and scooters

Viktoria E. • October 12, 2014Amazing selection of art by mostly, but not only, German artists active during the 19th century. Very nice space. Open and lets you get very close to the artwork.
