Welcome to the “Sunday at the Nikolai Quarter”! A colorful program awaits you on the day of action. Admission is free for everyone under 18 or with a concession.
Discover eight hundred years of history and culture! Berlin’s oldest preserved church building has characterised the Nikolai Quarter and the centre of Berlin since the Middle Ages: once a place of religion, now a museum of church, building and city history. The model of the medieval twin city of Berlin and Cölln is particularly interesting for families. Here, children and adults can find out together which buildings from back then still exist and what they look like today.
On the Day of Action, a guided tour of the permanent exhibition Berlin’s Middle will offer you a deeper insight into the history of the site. In addition, two special exhibitions await you: ‘Um Steine streiten!?’ (Fighting over Stones?!) sheds light on the colonial past of Berlin’s St Nicholas’ Church through six video stations. ‘Wer bestimmte in der Stadt?’ (Who ruled the city?) explores topics of church, power and coexistence before 1800, offering new perspectives on seven objects on display in the permanent exhibition. An audio guide for families takes visitors on a tour of the museum with fascinating stories in German. Especially for children, there is a museum treasure hunt illustrated by the Berlin comic artist Mawil, available in German, English, Turkish, Polish and Arabic.
