The museum presents itself in two architecturally remarkable buildings: in the most important preserved baroque building in Berlin, 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 6,000 objects on display to date will be stored in an interim depot, and the building will also be inaccessible 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 showcase 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. From January 2023, the Zeughaus cinema will also be located in the Pei-Bau.
