German Customs Museum, Customs museum in Speicherstadt, Hamburg, Germany.

The German Customs Museum displays over 1000 exhibits across 800 square meters, presenting the development of customs procedures through artifacts and documents.

Established in 1992, this museum continues the legacy of its 1927 Berlin predecessor, which was destroyed during World War II.

The permanent exhibition illustrates 2000 years of customs operations, from Roman times through German unification to modern European trade regulations.

The museum offers interactive displays, guided tours, and reduced admission with the Hamburg CARD, while featuring multilingual information panels.

A decommissioned customs vessel, the Oldenburg, rests in the Zollkanal before the museum, allowing visitors to explore maritime border control.
