Berlinische Galerie

The Berlinische Galerie is one of a kind: we collect, preserve, display and investigate modern and contemporary art made in Berlin. The Berlinische Galerie is a museum for everyone in the city, residents and guests alike. It was founded in 1975 as an association for art lovers with a strong sense of civic commitment, and in 1994 the State of Berlin took it on as a public museum. Because these are our roots, we see ourselves as a citizens’ assembly, and we attach great importance to creating an inspiring experience for all our visitors, whatever knowledge or interests they bring with them. We compile a packed diary of events to accompany every themed exhibition and the Presentation from Our Collection. At the Berlinische Galerie you not only encounter art but can also join a conversation. The museum as an open space for seeing, discovering and communicating – that is our team ethos.
