Museum for Communication Berlin

The Museum for Communication Berlin traces how people have sent messages and connected with each other across different periods and technologies. Multiple floors contain interactive displays, objects from past eras, and digital installations that let visitors explore and experiment.

The institution began in 1872 as a postal museum focused on mail delivery and postal history. Over time it grew to include telecommunications equipment, broadcast technologies, and the development of digital communication methods.

The displays show how different communication methods brought people together and continue to do so today. You see historical objects like old mailboxes and telephones displayed alongside modern digital tools, revealing how communication fits into everyday life.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday with extended evening hours on Tuesdays. Many exhibits are hands-on, allowing you to interact with the displays, and guided tours are available if you prefer structured exploration.

The collection holds rare postal equipment from the 19th century, including original telegraph machines and antique delivery vehicles used for mail transport. These objects give a tangible sense of how communication logistics worked long ago.
