December 13, 2021 update
The work for the technical renewal of the exhibition could be implemented quickly. Only a few supply bottlenecks had to be intercepted organizationally. Unfortunately, this means that the exhibition will not be open to visitors again on 14 December as planned, but only on 16 December. We apologize for this delay and hope that you will not be inconvenienced by this change. We look forward to your visit from 16 December 2021 from 10 am.
You are also welcome to take advantage of our special opening day, on 27 December 2021, for a visit.
Additional offer:from 27 to 30 December 2021, always at 3 pm, free public guided tour in the field of stelae, without prior registration
Press release of 22 September 2021
The exhibition under the field of stelae of the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin will be closed from 1 November 2021 to 13 December 2021 due to necessary technical reconstruction work. The field of stelae will remain accessible to visitors. Guided tours in the field of stelae and at the other memorials are offered unchanged. The digital educational offers also take place.
After 16 years of exhibition operation, over 7 million visitors and repeatedly minor repair and maintenance work, technical conversion work is now required. For example, the projectors are renewed, all screens in the exhibition are enlarged, and the loudspeaker system and the technical applications in the seminar room are revised. In addition, all exhibition boards, prints on the walls and on glass surfaces will be newly produced. The reprinting of the presentation areas is accompanied by small content adjustments based on recent research results or political changes.
