Museum Center Berlin-Dahlem

Main entrance to the Museum of European Cultures (2018)

The Museum Center Berlin-Dahlem is a building complex in the Berlin district of Dahlem in the Steglitz-Zehlendorf district . Today it only houses the collection of the Museum of European Cultures of the National Museums in Berlin . The official address is Lansstraße 8 . The main entrance is at Arnimallee 25.

The oldest plans for the building complex go back to the years 1914 to 1923. The decisive factor was Wilhelm von Bode's operation , the first drafts came from Bruno Paul . The structural implementation in the New Objectivity style , however, only took place from 1969 to 1973 by Fritz Bornemann and Wils Ebert .

In the past, the following collections were also located there:

Museum of Asian Art (until January 2017)
Ethnological Museum (until January 2017)
Gemäldegalerie (until June 1998)

Since the Ethnological Museum and the Museum of Asian Art will be located in the Humboldt Forum in the future , these museums at the Dahlem site were completely closed on January 8, 2017 in order to prepare them for the move.
