Experience the Museum Knoblauchhaus for the last time as a festively decorated Biedermeier Christmas house in Berlin! A journey through time to the origins of today’s Christmas traditions awaits you on three floors. The library and the cosy living room are particularly atmospheric, where old Christmas carols and Christmas stories (in German) can be heard accompanied by the festive scent of cinnamon and biscuits.
 
Let yourself be enchanted by historical Christmas decorations and toys, lovingly displayed in glass cabinets. A special Christmas audio guide will accompany you. Live speakers offer you further information in the museum on request.

Sunday at the Nikolai Quarter

With this day of action, the Stadtmuseum Berlin is continuing the popular Museum Sunday, which unfortunately cannot be continued in 2025 due to cost-cutting measures by the Berlin Senate. Instead, on the first Sunday of the month, we will be offering a special, wide-ranging programme for everyone at our three museums in the Nikolai Quarter – families in particular are cordially invited. So you can still look forward to great programmes at the Museum Ephraim-Palais, the Museum Nikolaikirche and the Museum Knoblauchhaus!

Even if admission can no longer be free for everyone, it will at least remain so for many: Our solidarity pricing model offers free admission for visitors with proof of discount, for example for children and young people under the age of 18, students, trainees, FSJ, FÖJ and BFD volunteers, severely disabled people, refugees, recipients of citizen’s allowance or ALG I and many others. All others only pay the museum entrance fee and can benefit from our discounted combi-ticket for all three museums. The extensive day of action programme is included in the price!
