    Its not everyday you get to see a museum dedicated to 'gay history' but that is just what the Schwules is all about. Right now they have amazing retrospective of the amazing writer Jean Genet, running

    I did visited 6 years ago and the museum was amazing, with many pieces and history of gays in Germany and the staff were fabulous...sadly today it's a cheap art gallery, few pieces, bad staff.

    Really useful, thought provoking queer museum. It is such a great thing that this place exists. It shows what a fantastic city Berlin is.

    "Porn That Way" was a lot bigger than I expected. Loved the place — well done!

    The one and (probably) only gay museum in the world. Not more at Mehringdamm.. opening May 2013 next to Nollendorfplatz.

    It is nowhere near to a museum. The place is poorly organised and it brings no cultural value at all. With all due respect, we expected a lot more.

    Am neuen Ort in der Lützwostraße 73 (Nähe Lützowplatz mit 100er Bus und U-Nollendorfplatz) hat das Museum 1.600qm Platz für 4 Ausstellungen, Museumscafé, Shop, Bibliothek und Archiv. Ein Besuch lohnt! Read more

    Einzigartiges Museum. Ausstellungen sind aber teilweise sehr überladen. Der Service ist berlinerisch.

    Único en Europa, interesante. Va a cambiar a un local más grande en los próximos meses.
