CITY GUIDE BERLIN: MARTIN-GROPIUS-BAU
This square, Renaissance-style building does not fail to impress with a large atrium at its center, generous surrounding galleries and remarkable mosaics. It was opened in 1881 as an arts and crafts museum and is today considered one of Germany’s most important exhibition venues for cultural history, archaeology, photography and art. Comparable to the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn, 15 to 20 temporary exhibitions take place here every year, several simultaneously, which are highly esteemed by a wide public. Exhibitions range from "Teotihuacan – Mexico’s Mysterious Pyramid City" through "André Kertész – Photographs" to "Olafur Eliasson: Inner City Out".
