Arno WolterMarch 18, 2015Don't miss the long exhibition hall in the rear building. It's awesome! Thematic guided tours in English available Sat&Sun 12pm, in German Thu-Fri 12pm and 4pm, Sat&Sun 2pm, all free charge.
Alina RydbeckApril 11, 2016Great museum, but check what's on when you plan to go, so you don't get there when half is closed for installation of a new exhibition. They change them almost every season.
The Ritz-CarltonJanuary 5, 2017One of the best museums for contemporary art in Berlin is the Hamburger Bahnhof, located right next to Berlin Central Station.
Jana A. KriSeptember 3, 2023Modern art lover?It’s ur heaven!Their exhibitions are well-curated and usually very different from one another.Don’t shy away from seeing 3 exhibs at once.Amazing interior is enabling large-scope art

Canan CmDnzFebruary 9, 2016A stunning exhibition in an historical and beautiful building. You'll be impressed for sure because the structural design of the old station makes exposition even more exciting.
'wall works' and 'sammlung marx' from current exhibitions are great! you should save more than couple hours for this museum. plus, buchhandlung walther könig is also there 🎉
Jennifer AshtonJune 24, 2015Ginormous space with important shows of late 20th-C and contemporary art. Don't miss the Beuys works on permanent display.
Ina LiJanuary 5, 2016Installations in the main hall and awesome collections in both wings. Reserve at least 2-3 hours for a full stroll.
- Jacob LindbladJuly 15, 2015Wonderful contemporary art museum in a beautiful old train station. Since the showings are mostly temporary exhibitions, check out the schedules before going.

m dNovember 10, 2018So good. Used-to-be-train-station contemporary art museum. Why are the old train station always good?- B. Aaron TalbotJuly 22, 2017very massive museum but well worth the visit: Warhol, beuys, and many many modern exhibits in the long hall...
Philip MAugust 26, 2017Great modern art museum, 7€ for students, 14€ for adults, staff could be friendlier
George M.January 17, 2016Typical wackos drawing and constructing weird stuff. Interesting nonetheless. Keep in mind the museum is quite big and might take you more than 3 hours to view it all!

Sophie DuvekotAugust 12, 2018One of the best museums of Berlin, the building itself is stunning and they always have some nice expositions.
Piotr S.July 26, 2015Museum of modern art. Unfortunately with ticket without temporary exhibitions you may miss significant part-permanent part was not very big and takes only around 1-2h to visit.
Lawrence JohnJuly 13, 2013I went there without any expectations or really having checked out any of the artists. Boy, was I in for a surprise! Martin Kippenberger (February until 18th of August) was a great one to get to know.

Ivan BraunNovember 2, 2013The oldest of survived train stations, it served less than 40 years before was recycled to a museum. Germany, the land of disposable train stations and recycled museums!
Martijn WinklerApril 29, 2013Amazing building, amazing collection. Do check out the sound-art exhibit, above the restaurant. An alarm bell silently ringing in vacuum...
Sasha GoncharovaApril 12, 2013It is very big and you would need ideally two days at least to examine everything properly. Great, great museum!!
Dolce&GabbanaFebruary 1, 2012It has an interesting collection focused on contemporary art with temporary exhibitions. Don't miss the one that is now on, Cloud City by Tomas Saraceno (until February 19th) and many others.

Kim GammelgaardMarch 29, 2016Don't miss Julian Rosefeldt's Manifesto with 13 movies with Cate Blanchett. Until July 10 16. A bit hidden over the restaurant
Annix L.April 3, 2016The permanent collection is quite good, but the quality of the temporary exhibitions oscillates wildly.
Marcus OlssonJuly 31, 2012Make sure to take an audioguide, to get the full picture. Don't miss joseph Beuys' wax sculptures, and the story behind them
LivaNovember 19, 2017This place is massive. Make sure you set aside 2 hours to stroll through every part.
Oh-Berlin.comNovember 22, 2011Tomas Sarenceno's 'Cloud Cities' blurs the lines between art, science fiction and reality. If you only do one thing this week, make sure it's paying Hamburger Bahnhof a visit! Read more
Abbie MolesworthOctober 13, 2018On 2 out of 3 different visits part of the gallery has been closed. Plan ahead to avoid being disappointed.
Just lay down in the middle of de Bahnhof. Great experience and why shouldn't you? ;-)
