In addition to the multimedia presentation on the history of the Akademie building, visitors can also expect guided tours of the architecture, storage rooms and depots. The Baukunstarchiv (Architectural Archives), Library and Art Collection will present highlights from their collections. The Picture Cellar and Reading Room will be open. We also cordially invite you to visit the bar on the rooftop terrace with a view onto the Brandenburg Gate.

This year, the Akademie der Künste has developed a Late Night Special with “Wechselstrom – Eine Nacht mit elektronischen Dialogen” (“Alternating current - A night with electronic dialogs”): Composer Arnold Dreyblatt, together with the Akademie’s Studio for Electroacoustic Music and international guests, will present a musical night programme from 11 pm. Improvised music, sound art and live electronics will be played in alternating duo line-ups.
