Hamburger Bahnhof – Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart
The Futurium, Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin Museum of Medical History and Museum of Natural History are joining forces to form the MuseumsMeileMitte. Together with local international companies, the district is networking the topics of knowledge, art and the future. On Saturday, 13 June 2026 the MuseumsMeileMitte and all participating partners will celebrate the public launch with a joint neighbourhood festival.
Two million visitors, four museums, one mile: Between the Invalidenpark and Humboldthafen, in Mitte and Moabit, are four cultural and research institutions that have hardly ever been considered as belonging together until now. They characterise a shared urban area from the southern part of the Panke to the Spree River: two million people visit the Futurium, Hamburger Bahnhof, the Museum of Medical History and the Museum of Natural History every year. With a programme of over 20 exhibitions a year and 6,000 guided tours on over 20,000 square metres of exhibition space, the MuseumsMeileMitte conveys knowledge and culture from the beginnings of the solar system to the present and the future.
Visitors to the MuseumsMeileMitte will not only be able to discover the institutions on guided tours, but also previously unknown corners around Invalidenstraße, such as the Invalidenfriedhof, the small Panke tributary or the Berlin Wall Memorial on the Berlin Wall Trail. Joint events connect the MuseumsMeileMitte institutions with their neighbourhood.
The first neighbourhood festival on Saturday, 13 June 2026 beginning at 12 noon will celebrate the public launch of the MuseumsMeileMitte with free admission to all four museums. On the “MMM walk”, visitors explore the urban space between the museums, which are each a five to ten-minute walk apart. In the exhibitions and gardens, the first neighbourhood festival of the MuseumsMeileMitte offers workshops, tours, interactive activities or film programmes on a wide variety of topics; from the future of raw materials, the famous T. rex Tristan Otto, Berlin's urban ecology and insect worlds, the visibility of women in medicine or the history of the hospital bed, to contemporary light art and a painting workshop on roller skates.
The MuseumsMeileMitte is an initiative of the Berlin Medical History Museum of the Charité, Futurium, Hamburger Bahnhof – Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart, Museum of Natural History and companies such as CA Immo Deutschland GmbH. Many large companies have their headquarters directly in the MuseumsMeileMitte. These include companies such as 50Hertz, Deutsche Bahn, KPMG and TotalEnergies. The MuseumsMeileMitte connects a place where tens of thousands of people work, where over 300,000 travellers visit the central station every day and where thousands of Berliners live.
