Guided Story

Imagine holding a book older than some of the buildings around you. That's exactly what awaits you inside. As you look around, consider the countless stories these manuscripts could tell. This exhibition isn't just a glimpse into the past, but a reflection of Berlin's evolution. Did you know the State Library once occupied a different building and has journeyed through history's upheavals? If you glance to your right, you might spot the statue of Theodor Mommsen, a historian who was a keeper and teller of tales himself. The link between past and present is striking here.
