The museum is housed in two architecturally remarkable buildings: Berlin's most important preserved baroque building, the Zeughaus, and a highlight of modern architecture, the Pei-Bau.

The permanent exhibition on German history in the Zeughaus is expected to be closed until the end of 2025 for the development of a new permanent exhibition. The 6000 objects exhibited so far will be stored in an interim depot. The building is also not accessible due to necessary repairs. When it reopens, the unique exhibits from the collections will once again provide a vivid and comprehensive illustration of the past.

The Pei Building will continue to show temporary exhibitions on formative events and people in German history in a European context, accompanied by guided tours, inclusive formats, digital presentations, discussions and lectures. An outdoor poster exhibition on the façade of the Zeughaus in the alley leading to the Pei-Bau bears witness to the building's eventful history.
