Great exhibition on commissioned art in Third Reich and after exploring continuance of purpose. Awesome building.
Original museum building is undergoing renovation.

Have been here twice now at different times of the year with a different rotation of exhibitions. Both times have been really interesting. The Marx exhibition that is on currently is full of facts and is an unbiased representation that is sure to teach you something new, be it good or bad about Marx. The Merkel exhibition was a bit strange though. The staff are helpful, friendly and polite and it is easy to find, just off museum island. The building itself is an interesting piece of modern architecture.

Excellent museum of modern construction. Informative exhibitions.

A beautiful space. A somewhat spartan gift shop. Sadly, most of the museum exhibits are closed due to renovation. There were only three exhibits open -- Karl Marx, Richard Wagner, and Angela Merkel. Although these were informative and interesting, it was far less than what was expected. The cafe looks nice.

Was unfortunate that the main permanent exhibition was undergoing construction, as that contained most of the German history aspect that we came to see. The exhibit on Karl Marx and Capitalism was interesting, so was the exhibit on Richard Wagner, but they didn’t really give much context as to who these people were, just how they influenced our day and age.

The permanent collection is closed until 2025, without that this museum really isn't worth visiting. They still have a few temporary exhibits that you can get an 8 euro ticket for, but in my opinion it wasn't worth the time on my trip to visit them.
