German Historical Museum

Strolled down the Unter de Linden, as one does, looking for the German Historical Museum.
Finally found this place by standing out the front and wondering where it was. By way I’d excuse it is covered in scaffolding.
Fantastic place, one of the best laid out and comprehensive we’ve ever seen. And you will all admit that we do a LOT of museums.

Just as importantly it has a very good cafe and excellent toilets. Two attributes that are assuming greater and greater importance as time moves on.

Had a fantastic extension out the back (More latter) by I.E. Pei, he of the Louvre pyramid. The man has museums sown up.

Went to a special exhibition called “Saving- History of A German Virtue”.

We are able to hear the laugher from here but it was very good and thought provoking. Saving vs investment. Think on this a bit. You know who you are.Read more
