Schwules Museum, LGBTQ museum in Berlin, Germany.
The Schwules Museum maintains extensive collections of LGBTQ art, literature, photographs, and historical documents across multiple exhibition spaces in central Berlin.
Founded in 1985 as the first museum dedicated to gay history, this institution emerged from a successful exhibition at the Berlin Märkisches Museum.
The museum organizes temporary exhibitions, film screenings, and discussions that examine different aspects of gender identity and sexual orientation through art and documentation.
Visitors can access the museum from Sunday through Saturday between 14:00 and 18:00, with extended hours until 20:00 on Thursdays.
The museum houses over 20,000 books and periodicals dating back to 1896, creating one of the largest archives of LGBTQ literature in Europe.
