German History Museum Accessibility

Sage 4 Star Accessibility

The German History Museum is one of the best history museums I’ve ever been to. It covers all of German History from pre-historic times to today and it is easy to spend all day there. I recommend going to this museum in the beginning of your trip so you will have a historical context to the sights you will see. There is a step-free entrance on Unter Den Linden street to the south of the building.
