Visitor entrance at the Corneliusbrücke

Since July 2022, visitors access the Deutsches Museum through a multi-storey glass building located at Corneliusbrücke (Cornelius Bridge).

"This is a temporary solution: in 2028, the main entrance will return to the Museum Courtyard," explains Dieter Lang, part of the museum’s management team and in charge of modernization. "But we are pleased to offer such an attractive interim solution. Its transparent design symbolizes the renewed openness of the Museum Island."

This entrance is part of the museum’s ongoing modernization project, which is gradually transforming the Deutsches Museum for the future.
