Deutsches Historisches Museum
The National History Museum of Germany is the German Historical Museum, which defines itself as a lively place for the communication and discussion of history. In the historic centre of Berlin, the institution is represented by two architecturally impressive buildings: the Zeughaus, the most important surviving baroque building in the city, and the modern exhibition hall designed by the renowned architect I.M. Pei. This urban masterpiece focuses on transparency, light and movement as central elements.
From 28 June 2021, the Zeughaus is expected to be closed until the end of 2025 for urgently needed renovation work and the simultaneous renewal of the permanent exhibition. In the Pei Building, however, changing exhibitions will continue to be presented on four levels, highlighting significant events, developments and facets of German history.
