International Museum Day at the Museum Ephraim-Palais

Die Geschichte des Ephraim-Palais ist mit dem Namensgeber Veitel Heine Ephraim verbunden. Das Gebäude wurde von 1762 bis 1769 errichtet. In den 1980er Jahren wurde es rekonstruiert. Es befindet sich an der Poststraße Ecke Mühlendamm in Berlin-Mitte. – Frontalansicht Museum Ephraim-Palais

On 17 May, we are celebrating International Museum Day. In the heart of the Nikolaiviertel, we invite you to visit our exhibition – admission is free.
Discover the BerlinZEIT! On the 1st and 2nd floors of the Museum Ephraim-Palais, the exhibition offers you an entertaining discovery tour through the centuries and at the same time a comprehensive overview of the sometimes revolutionary events in this city. All the senses are addressed: Feel medieval fabrics, smell your way back to 1740, see the padlock from the original Brandenburg Gate and listen to interviews with people who shaped Berlin at the time of reunification.
The new exhibition “Tapetenwechsel – Migration und Mobiliar seit 1960” explores the concept of home in a society shaped by migration, examining both aesthetic and social issues. The focus is on Berlin, whilst also looking at other places of migration in Germany.
Info: International Museum Day will take place for the 49th time in 2026. Annually designated by the International Council of Museums (ICOM) to fall on 18 May, it will be celebrated in Germany this year on the third Sunday of the month. The aim of this event is to raise awareness of museums and encourage people to discover their diversity.
