How to visit 89 Free Museums Berlin Sunday

Free Museums Berlin Sunday

Free admission to Berlin Museums every first Sunday of the month. You don’t even need to book in advance simply turn up to the museum you wish to visit that is included in Museum Sundays. There is no limit on how many museums you can enter however do expect a lot of walking around.

Be aware that not all museums participate in free museums Berlin Sunday so be sure to check before you arrive.

Free Museums Berlin Sunday Tickets

Only some of the museums require timed entry so be sure to check, however most of them you can simply just turn up and ask for a ticket free of charge. Most museums open at 10 am and close around 4 pm. I managed to squeeze in three museums to make the most it, however, this is a lot of walking.

This would depend on what interests you. I personally loved the Bode Museum, the National History Museum and the Pergamon Museum.
