German Museum of Technology (Deutsches Technikmuseum)

For the price you pay, this is an excellent museum where a casual visitor could enjoy a few hours, and a real nerd like me could get lost all day. There are a number of interactive exhibits which kids will love, and live demonstrations of some exhibits, such as the flight simulator and steam engine, on certain days. The museum park is also beautiful, and the cafe has some delicious food. The museum shop is disappointing, however. A lot of the exhibits have text in English, but many more do not. I found myself having to Google translate quite a lot of the larger text boxes, but when I did the content within was really interesting. The actual remains of shot-down or recovered WW2 aircraft were some of my favourite things, and the text boxes attached gave info about those specific airframes and their story, as well as about the type in general. The balcony below the C-47 offers an excellent photo opportunity with the TV tower visible in the background. The railway sheds have some really interesting examples, and the model of the Anhalter-Banhoff complex was incredible to see, both in size and detail, especially after walking past the remaining portico on my way to the museum from the S-bahn station of the same name. The second (red, on the map) building was less interesting to me even as a car lover, but the main building complex is worth the price of admission on its own.

If you are tech entusiast and love to see german technology this is the place, even if you dont have kids lol. Didnt had too much time but managed to check all important sections and even a remote car collection in other building. It wasnt that crowded. Went there around 13h.

What a great way to wile away several hours. There are lots of different types of exhibitions that everyone should be able to find that is of interest to them. Particularly interesting was to see everyday objects we grew up with in a museum, z.b. Palm Pilot, Nokia Handy, Goblin Teas maid (my parent had one 😂)

Amazing, totally worth it. Perfect for a rainy day, takes around 2/3 hours to see everything. Boats and Airplanes exhibition was fantastic. There's a lot of interactive stuff for all ages to learn and have fun.

The museum is big and it workhs spending hours in the galleries. Old computers are interesting to see. The most different section was the one with lots of different locomotives from different eras. You can follow the changi from steam to electricity, not by engines but also by design and engineering.
