I'd read a lot of reviews talking about staying here for hours and losing track of time. As much as I love history I really couldn't see that happening to me. Well I was wrong! This museum really is one of the best I've been to. So full of information but so easy to read with an amazing array of... More

Budget a lot of time for this Museum as it contains original artifacts from 1 B.C. through World War II. From ancient royalty, to Martin Luther, to industrialization, it tells Germany's story well.

If you'd like to know the History of Germany and how it played an important role in shaping the destiny of the world, "Deutsches Historisches Museum"(German History Mueseum) is your answer.

We are already planning another trip just to... More

The museum reminds us of other German history and achievements by some of its citizens. Lots of information. Important to pace yourself at these museums or else you... More

This museum presents the history of the german people in an absorbing way. We went there for a quick walk-through but ended up spending 6 hours following to timeline from roman times up to modern day. A multimedia display showing the migrations of early european "tribes" was fascinating as was the history of the run-up to the first world war... More

Another place to find out more about the dark side of German history. You cannot fail to be moved by the distress on the faces of all those who suffered so much at the atrocities inflicted on them by the Nazis.
