Jewish Museum Berlin Tickets

The Jewish Museum Berlin (Jüdisches Museum Berlin) is the largest Jewish museum in Europe, a whopping 38,000 square feet! Plan to spend at least 2-3 hours exploring all the exhibits inside.

Your Jewish Museum Berlin tickets give you access to the history of Jews in Germany from the Middle Ages to the present day, and a visit offers a new perspective for most people. It can also be quite an emotional journey – bring some tissues.

Your Jewish Museum Berlin tickets are valid from 10 am to 7 pm daily. The museum is closed on the Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year) and Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). It's also closed on Christmas Eve, as well as the day of the ceremony for the Award for Understanding and Tolerance.

Keep in mind the staff start clearing the exhibitions at around 6.30 pm, ahead of the 7 pm closing time, so if you're going later in the day, be sure to give yourself enough time to see it all. If you want to try avoiding the crowds, go as early as possible, mid-week. Weekends are often the busiest.

The museum café by eßkultur serves up delicious daily lunch specials, including coffee and homemade cakes. You're welcome to enjoy food you've brought yourself in the Glass Courtyard and in the museum garden, which are both nice spots for coffee and contemplation on a sunny day.

The Glass Courtyard and garden are accessible without Jewish Museum Berlin tickets.

The simplest way to get to the Jewish Museum Berlin is by U-Bahn – Berlin's subway system. Hop on the underground line U6 to Kochstraße, and you'll reach the museum in just ten minutes by foot. Show your tickets early and beat the subway crowds, as well as the museum crowds!

The buses M29, M41, and 248 also all stop close to the museum.

The core exhibition is suitable for children. There are many interactive stations to make things interesting for little ones.

There's an entire realm for children, which opened in 2021. ANOHA - Children's World of the Jewish Museum is in the former wholesale market hall opposite the Jewish Museum Berlin. Based on the story of Noah's Ark from the Torah, kids between the ages of 3 and 10 have almost 3,000 square meters to explore, discover and play, with hands-on and interactive elements. A huge wooden ark is packed with 150 animal sculptures that children can pet and even feed!

The Jewish Museum Berlin has also expanded its existing program for children with workshops specially designed for children and families, school groups, and education professionals. There's a kids' program during the Jazz in the Garden concerts in the summer, too.
