Deutsches Pressemuseum im Ullsteinhaus, Press museum in Tempelhof-Schöneberg, Germany.
The Deutsches Pressemuseum im Ullsteinhaus is a museum located in Berlin's Tempelhof-Schöneberg district that documents the history of newspapers and press in Germany. Inside, visitors encounter displays of historical newspapers, photographs from press archives, and machinery used in printing operations.
The museum operates inside a building from the 1920s that originally served as the headquarters for a major German publishing company. The institution was established to preserve the history of this influential publishing tradition and its impact on German media development.
The exhibitions show how journalism shaped German public life across different eras through the actual newspapers, layouts, and stories that reached readers. Visitors can observe how the press reflected and responded to major events and changes in society.
The museum arranges guided tours for different visitor groups and provides a research area for those wanting to examine archival materials in depth. Advance inquiry about special tours or workshops scheduled during your visit will help you make the most of your time there.
Robert Lebeck's Kiosk collection preserves tens of thousands of newspapers and magazines spanning a century, showing how street vendors sold publications to everyday readers. This assemblage now supports university research projects in Berlin that explore aspects of media history rarely found elsewhere.
