Berlin Stories

The “Reichsbank Furniture”

They came to the Märkisches Museum as a transfer from the Ministry of Finance of the GDR in the 1950s: 47 French antiques from the 18th and 19th centuries. What does French furniture have to do with Berlin’s urban history? A contribution from provenance research.

Helga Goetze

Many Berliners still remember her provocative actions in front of the Gedächtniskirche or the TU Berlin. Villa Oppenheim is now dedicating an exhibition to the artist, writer, poet and activist Helga Goetze (1922-2008).

The AVUS

The AVUS was used as a race track until the end of the 1990s. Today, it forms the northern section of the A115 motorway. We tell its story.

Revolution

1848, 1918, 1989: Berlin played a central role in the great German revolutions, which in turn were closely linked to European and global freedom movements. The BERLIN GLOBAL exhibition focuses on revolutionary events that are closely linked to the city of Berlin.
