As the director of the Märkisches Museum, I would like to thank you for your visit. I hope you enjoyed our exhibition BerlinZEIT – A Compact History! Did you find out more about this city? You are welcome to leave your comments in our visitors’ book in the entrance hall. We hope to see you again, here or in one of our other institutions: the Museum Ephraim-Palais, the Nikolaikirche, the Knoblauchhaus or Museumsdorf Düppel. Or from the end of 2020 onwards in our exhibition in the new Humboldt Forum.
Due to the current circumstances we invite you to take a digital tour through the permanent exhibition BerlinZEIT. The Stadtmuseum Berlin presents at Märkisches Museum a host of artefacts related to the culture and history of the city. A strong level of civic engagement had already led to the foundation of the Museum in 1874. From 1899 to 1908 architect Ludwig Hoffmann designed this first city museum in the world.
