Haus am Waldsee, Entertainment center and architectural monument in Zehlendorf, Germany.
Haus am Waldsee is an art exhibition venue housed in a renovated 1922 villa with white walls, large windows, and multiple gallery rooms distributed across different levels. The spaces flow throughout the building and provide ample room for changing art presentations.
The building originally served as Haus Knobloch, the residence of a factory owner, before transforming into one of Germany's earliest venues for contemporary art after 1945. This conversion made it a pioneer in post-war art promotion.
The exhibition space displays works by artists from around the world, with rotating shows that bring different international perspectives to the rooms. Visitors encounter both established and emerging artists whose pieces fill the various galleries.
The venue is best reached on foot or by public transport and sits in a quiet residential area on the edge of Berlin. Its location in a tree-filled area makes a visit feel like a walk through nature before entering the exhibition building.
The grounds feature an English landscape garden that doubles as a sculpture park, displaying art installations among trees and green spaces. This outdoor area lets visitors experience contemporary works within a natural setting rather than solely within interior walls.
