The museum is located in two architecturally remarkable buildings: the most important preserved baroque building in Berlin, the currently closed Zeughaus, and a highlight of modern architecture, the Pei-Bau.
The survey exhibition on German history in the Zeughaus is currently being revised. The building is also not accessible due to necessary repairs.
The Pei-Bau continues to feature temporary exhibitions on defining events and figures in German history in a European context, accompanied by guided tours, inclusive formats, digital presentations, discussions, and lectures. An outdoor poster exhibition on the facade of the Zeughaus in the alley leading to the Pei-Bau bears witness to the building's eventful history. Since January 2023, the Zeughauskino has also been located in the Pei-Bau.
- Monday-Sunday 10:00 - 18:00
Zeughaus: closed
The opening hours are valid for the Pei-Bau (Hinter dem Gießhaus 3, 10117 Berlin)
