Discover eight hundred years of history and culture! Berlin’s oldest preserved church building has characterised the Nikolai Quarter and the centre of Berlin since the Middle Ages: once a place of religion, now a museum of church, building and city history. The model of the medieval twin city of Berlin and Cölln is particularly interesting for families. Here, children and adults can find out together which buildings from back then still exist and what they look like today.
An audio guide for families leads you through the museum with exciting stories in German. Especially for children, there is a museum rally illustrated by Berlin cartoonist Mawil in German, English, Turkish, Polish and Arabic. And that’s not all: on Saturday we offer regular free guided tours of the Nikolaikirche. On Sunday, there will be a guided tour in German Sign Language (DGS) and a guided tour around the building. On both days there will be a variety of creative activities for families to take part in.
