Preserving the East Side Gallery

Guided tour for the Open Monument Day 2026

On Open Monument Day in Berlin, we invite you to an exclusive guided tour of the East Side Gallery with a focus on monument preservation.
Preserving a monument means keeping the past visible and dealing with it responsibly. This can also be seen at the East Side Gallery. It was built in 1990 and was extensively renovated in 2009. The masonry was secured and the artwork was almost completely replaced. Only one original has survived to this day.

In 2026, the key question is how this monument can be preserved and maintained in the long term. The director of the East Side Gallery and the FSJ'lerin of the Jugendbauhütte Berlin provide insights into the issues surrounding the monument: What measures are required to protect art and substance in equal measure? What is the monumental value of the East Side Gallery? Among other things, selected works of art such as the painting "Hands", which is the last original of particular significance, will be presented. Current monitoring, damage investigation and restoration measures will also provide an insight into practical monument conservation.Translated with DeepL
