Every other year, more than 100 museums, galleries and other venues in Berlin present photographic art at the largest photo festival in Germany, the European Month of Photography.
In 2025, the European Month of Photography took place for the 11th time. The motto of Germany's largest photo festival this time was "What stands between us" and focused on political tensions and the fragility of democratic values. The motto for 2027 is not yet known.
The European Month of Photography Berlin is the largest German photography festival. It has been held every two years since 2004 and presents numerous exhibitions and events on historical and contemporary photography.
