Daniel Libeskind designed the museum, and its angled walls, empty voids and sloping floors are part of the experience. The core exhibition follows Jewish history in Germany from the Middle Ages to today. Admission to the core exhibition and most other presentations in the building is free, though some temporary exhibitions in the old building carry a charge. ANOHA, the children's world, suits younger visitors who would tire of the main rooms.
What to look for
- The Garden of Exile and the Holocaust Tower
- The core exhibition on German Jewish history

Tickets and booking
Free. Admission to the core exhibition is free for everyone. Temporary exhibitions in the old building have a separate ticket, and children under 18 enter free.
Walk in tickets are available at the desk, but the museum recommends a time slot ticket from its online shop to cut the wait. ANOHA can only be visited with a time slot ticket.
Getting there
Hallesches Tor station on the U1 and U6 lines is the closest, and Kochstraße on the U6 line is also close.
Tip
Go at opening, because the building is tiring to read through and the later hours bring school groups.
