Customer Reviews

An absolute must, especially with the current political climate. We did both inside and outside along the wall. Do the audio tour inside and give plenty of time to read the wall in order. It's an incredible exhibit that everyone should see and understand what happened here. It's very moving.

Very nice museum.
Well structured , free audio guide through the website (many languages available), Time chronology is well done.
The museum site played a huge role in the old Reichstag, it was heartbreaking walking here and imagining all the terror and hostility that was played and commanded at the same place many years ago.
Lockers are available for a symbolic price.

This is an absolute must stop if you are visiting Berlin. The museum has an indoor and outdoor visiting area. The outdoor is along an original section of the Berlin Wall and covered from the elements if it is raining. The indoor section is also free. It is a great facility and displays everything about the Third Reich and so much more. You can spend quite a bit of time here for sure. There is a canteen, great washroom facilities, and a library (?) - was not open. I highly recommend this museum - so much information. Thanks.
