Located on Museum Island, the Deutsches Museum is the largest technology museum in the world. Founded in 1903 (and opened in 1906), it represents the realisation of a vision by Oskar von Miller—a vision that continues to captivate over 1.5 million visitors annually.
A visit to the museum offers you the opportunity to dive deep into approximately 50 different fields of study, ranging from astrophysics and chemistry to cell biology. Through live experiments, science is made accessible and understandable to everyone.
The museum is currently undergoing extensive modernisation and is gaining new departments that are significantly more accessible to wheelchair users. Yet, no matter how often you visit, there is always something new to discover—whether you are a first-time visitor without specific technical interests or a seasoned expert.
During my guided tours of the Deutsches Museum, I place a special emphasis on the historical context: King Ludwig III made what was arguably the most significant public appearance of his life right here—an event immortalised in a monumental painting located in the entrance hall. Prince Luitpold, gazing at his son with evident pride, is also depicted in this portrait.
Since the sheer scope of the museum’s collections is nearly impossible to fully grasp in a single day, we present to you a curated selection of its departments. Each member of my team has a unique area of expertise, allowing us to tailor the focus of your guided tour to your specific interests.
