Museum der Stille, Art museum in Mitte, Germany.
Museum der Stille is an art museum in Berlin-Mitte focused on large-scale painting series. The works display foggy sky fragments and landscape sections rendered in sepia tones and arranged with deliberate lighting in specially designed gallery spaces.
The museum was founded in 1994 after artist Nikolai Makarov received many requests for a permanent exhibition space during Berlin's period of transformation. This establishment followed a time of intensive urban renewal following the fall of the Wall.
The name reflects the museum's concept of inviting visitors into quiet, concentrated engagement with the artworks on display. The architectural design supports this experience by creating spaces that encourage focus and inward reflection.
The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday from 14:00 to 19:00 with no admission fee for visitors. It is located in a readily accessible area in central Berlin with good public transport connections nearby.
A permanent exhibition called Gulag Gedenkraum is housed within the museum and serves as a memorial space for victims of Stalinist persecution. This collection of photographs and installations provides important historical context apart from the main gallery collections.
