    A wonderful museum with exhibitions and layouts that are both cognizant and commemorative. The Axis of the Holocaust and Welcome to Jerusalem exhibitions should not be missed.

    Get the audio guide. And then take your time to experience the museum with all your senses. Don't just rush through, read some of the exhibits - but let the architecture speak to you.

    Great museum, but your biggest mistake can be starting the tour from the bottom/ Go to the 2nd floor and work your way down! Great collections on Jewish history and culture, the Nazi times and renewal

    Amazing architectural piece, but the exposition is not as good as I have hoped. Holocaust towen and Fallen Leaves void is scary and emotional though.

    Amazing architecture and loved the permanent art installations, not so much the permanent exhibit. Loved the temporary exhibit by Boris Lurie!

    Spent a whole morning there and enjoyed all the interactive activities. And of course. Great impressive design of Sir L.. But there were indeed a lot to do next to visiting the building design.

    The architecture is incredible - you are walking through piece of art. The exhibits are also great, focusing not only on the Holocaust, but on all aspects of Jewish history in the region. Must see.

    Definitely a place to visit if you're in Berlin. Take some time to go through all the stuff and tiny details that have been presented. You'd need max. 3 hrs but can be covered in an hour if in hurry.

    Try not to get lost, there s so much to see, it's very interactive and interesting, it's not only about the Holocaust but the whole Jewish history and traditions. Bring a 5 euro cent with you ;)

    Probably one of the most amazing museums I've been to. The special exhibit Obedience on the Binding of Isaac was part MoMA part Sleep No More. The permanent collection resides in some incredible arch

    The architecture is impressive, make sure you visit all the 5 voids. We almost missed the memory void, is on the first floor.

    Easily one of the most spectacular museum buildings worldwide. Be sure to bring some time, as a full tour may take up to 3-4 hours

    Great museum. If you plan to hear the complete audio guide and watch the whole exhibition you'll need probably more than 5 hours. There is so much information!

    Very moving museum. The exhibitions evolves around the second world war and Holocaust, but also early jewish history and tradition. Student discount is possible.

    The building is really impressive. Don't forget to show your student card if your are one (I paid 2€, but the price may be higher when the main exhibition is open again)

    WAY too much to see! A very interesting, quite large and somewhat complex museum filled with general culture & history about Judaism and also about the Holocaust against them and previous history

    Bring your own earphones to share the €3 audioguide if you come with a friend, don't forget your warm cloth to enjoy the outdoor (and cold) parts of the museum

    Amazing experience. Sensorial bending spaces and interesting artifacts. In the winter some of those experiences are enhanced. You're not supposed to feel comfortable in some spaces by the way.

    The museum architecture and the artistic part of the museum are amazing, and its not your typical holocaust museum- it shows the life of Jews in Germany since 900ac and their effect- very interesting!

    The vicious angles, window gashes and walkways to nowhere within Daniel Libeskind’s powerful Jewish Museum are memorable. But the exhibits are unforgettable.

    Opening in 2001, this is the museum where you'll gain knowledge and practically find everything you need to know about the German Jewish history. Opens at 10am.

    Powerful. So nice - so sad at the same time.. And those teen girls making happy/sexy selfies with sculpture of "death Jewish bodies" made me sad even more.
