What to expect
The German Historical Museum is a museum in Berlin, Germany devoted to German history. It describes itself as a place of 'enlightenment and understanding of the shared history of Germans and Europeans'. The museum is located in the 17th-century Zeughaus on the Unter den Linden, just across the Spree from Museum Island. The museum's attached Exhibition Hall was designed by I. M. Pei in the late 20th century. The museum provides insights into current and upcoming exhibitions as well as the history and architecture of the Zeughaus and Pei Building, with multimedia content and visitor information. The museum also offers digital guides and accessibility features, such as voice-overs, subtitles, font size adjustment, and alt text, making it easier for all users to access the content

German Historical Museum - Is it worth it?
Activities: We visited the Deutsches Historisches Museum Berlin. We started with the classic exhibits like chain mail. We looked at digital copies of old manuscripts. We saw portraits and the Behaim-Globus. We then moved to the exhibition on the 20th century, including the Weimar Republic and National Socialism. We ended with the VW Beetle and Trabi
Highlights: My son was initially uninterested in the portraits, but he enjoyed the exhibit with the old gas station, the moped, and the consumer goods from the Weimar Republic. We also found the exhibits about World War II and the post-war period interesting. The atmosphere in the café/restaurant was also nice ✨
