The Brücke Museum in Berlin Charlottenburg is not just for art enthusiasts. As the only museum in the world that brings together the artworks of an entire group of artists under one roof and also highlights the works of the Brücke painters created between 1905 and 1913, a visit here promises to be a very special experience.
History and significance
Die Brücke was a group of artists founded by various architecture students in Dresden in 1905. The group's painters included Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Erich Heckel, Karl Schmidt-Rotluff and Fritz Bleyl, as well as Otto Mueller, Werner Düttmann and Emil Nolde. The Brücke advocated a freer understanding of art and used particularly bold colors and striking forms in their numerous works of art such as paintings, watercolors, woodcuts, drawings, sculptures, graphics and prints, and the movement is now considered one of the most important movements of Expressionism. Currently, visitors to the Berliner Brücke Museum not only have the opportunity to admire the multifaceted works of the Brücke artists and various painter friends, but also learn more about the lives and works of the individual members up to the dissolution of the Brücke in May 1913 through the changing exhibitions.
Entrance fees and activities
Founded back in 1967, the museum at Bussardsteig 9, not far from the botanical garden, is a fascinating place to see the influence that the various Brücke artists had on the development of modern art. The museum is a contemporary witness to the contribution that German artists made to the international avant-garde. At the same time, contemporary artists of the early 20th century are also presented in the Brücke Museum, so you should definitely plan enough time for a visit. If you don't want to miss out on this unique art collection during your visit to Berlin, you can experience the museum from Wednesday to Monday from 11:00 to 17:00. The entrance fee for a one-way ticket for adults is just 6 euros. Reduced tickets cost just 4 euros. Admission is free all year round for children up to the age of 18, students of applied arts and people with disabilities. Alternatively, a combined ticket for 8 euros (regular) or 5 euros (reduced) may be worthwhile. This allows you to visit not only the Brücke-Museum but also the Kunsthaus Dahlem. Or you can opt for the practical Museum Pass and benefit from free admission to 30 Berlin museums such as the Kunsthaus Dahlem or well-known classics on Museum Island on three consecutive days. You can find detailed information about this offer at any time on the website visitberlin.de. Or you can take advantage of Museum Sunday, when almost 60 Berlin museums grant you free admission on the first Sunday of every month, to visit some of the best museums free of charge.
Directions and parking possibilities
The Brücke Museum at Bussardsteig 9 in Dahlem is easy to reach by car as well as by public transport such as bus and train. If you are traveling to Dahlem by bus, it is best to get off at the Brücke Museum/Kunsthaus Dahlem stop. From here it is only a 5-minute walk to the museum. Otherwise, you can also get off at the Königin-Luise-Str./Clay Allee or Bernadottenstraße stops and reach the museum after a fifteen-minute walk. You can also take the train to Dahlem. This also gives you the opportunity to combine several highlights of the German capital. Visit the exciting government district, for example. Stroll from Washingtoner Platz to the main train station and take the subway from here to Breitenbachplatz station. From here it is also only a short walk to the museum. However, if you arrive by car or hire car, there are various parking facilities near the museum, some of which are subject to a charge.
Other places of interest in Dahlem
Would you like to make the most of your trip to Dahlem? Then visit not only the fantastic Brücke Museum, but also the many other sights in the district. These include the Atelierhaus Dahlem, the Domäne Dahlem with its special museum, the Grunewald hunting lodge, the Allied Museum in Steglitz-Zehlendorf and the elegant Pücklerstraße. Or you can visit the Great Phoenix III in the Bernhard Heiliger Foundation. The impressive sculpture is located directly in the atrium of the building and is still considered the most important work from the artist's later creative period.
But well-known Berlin classics such as the unique Charlottenburg Palace, the Olympic Stadium, the old radio tower and much more are also just a stone's throw away from Dahlem. So you have the choice of how you want to spend your time in Charlottenburg!
