Each room features surprising objects and motifs: Right in the middle of BERLIN GLOBAL is a huge rusty vault door. What does this massive object tell us about dispossession and persecution and why is it a symbol for the party scene of the ‘90s? Just looking up at the ceiling to see the original lighting fixtures from the Palast der Republik gives an insight into the past: What was recreation and entertainment like for Berliners 40 years ago? ##### Information The guided tour will be held in German. ## Our guided tours in English - [ ![](https://stiftung-stadtmuseum-berlin.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/BerlinGlobal-354-300x200.jpg)](https://www.stadtmuseum.de/en/events/berlin-global-in-60-minutes) ## Info & Service ##### Opening Hours Mon + Wed – Sun | 10.30 am – 6.30 pm Tue | closed Last admission is at 5.30 pm ##### Special Opening Hours Fri, 1 May 2026 (Labour Day) | 10.30 am – 6.30 pm Thu, 14 May 2026 (Ascension Day) | 10.30 am – 6.30 pm Wed, 20 May 2026 (private event) | 10.30 – 14.30 pm Mon, 25 May 2026 (Whit Monday) | 10.30 am – 6.30 pm Fri, 25 June 2026 (private event) | 11.30 – 18.30 pm Sat, 3 October 2026 (German Unity Day) | 10.30 am – 6.30 pm Last admission is at 5.30 pm ##### Closing Times Due to maintenance work, the exhibition will be **closed from 4 to 6 May 2026**.
