Easier than ever, visitors will have the opportunity to get glimpses into Stadtmuseum Berlin's collections.

The Märkisches Museum's Laboratory’s comprehensive programme encourages young visitors in particular to experience history hands-on.

Distinctive building pays homage to architectural role models

Director of urban planning and construction Ludwig Hoffmann oversaw the building of the Märkisches Museum in Köllnischer Park from 1899 to 1908. A virtuosic, carefully staged ensemble in the style of Wilhelminian Historicism, this structure pays homage to architectural precursors from the north of Germany and the Mark Brandenburg region.

The Gotische Kapelle, the Zunftsaal and the Waffenhalle provide an atmospheric framework for a range of productions. A strong level of civic engagement had already led to the foundation of the Märkisches Provinzialmuseum in 1874.
