The project ‘The Healing Museum’ combines mindfulness, medical research and art history. It is the result of a collaboration between the Experimental and Clinical Research Centre (Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin) and the Bode Museum (sculpture collection).

We offer you the opportunity to learn practical mindfulness exercises on your own or to deepen existing skills in this field. A specially prepared museum room (room 124) is available for this purpose, which shows the interwoven meditation traditions of Buddhism, Islam, Christianity and Hinduism and traces their influence on the new mindfulness movement of the 21st century. A selection of inspiring meditations can be accessed free of charge via the audio guide, by mobile phone or via this website. A bench and cushions are available.

In order to make this special self-help programme accessible to as wide an audience as possible, 2,000 free tickets will be made available to interested members of the public in the first year of the project. For each subsidised time slot, 10 people can purchase a free ticket. However, you can also take advantage of the offer at any time with a valid admission ticket.
