Germany Cinematheque Berlin
The Museum for Film and Television (formerly: Filmmuseum Berlin) is a film museum in Germany. It was opened in 2000 as a department of the Deutsche Kinemathek - Museum for Film and Television.
When the Deutsche Kinemathek moved to the Filmhaus on Potsdamer Platz on September 25, 2000, the Filmmuseum Berlin department was created. Its permanent exhibition shows exhibits from the entire history of German film, including from exile in Hollywood during the Nazi era, for example: film posters, photos, film costumes, architectural sketches, props. A special focus is dedicated to the actress Marlene Dietrich, who herself had an extensive private collection.
Since June 1, 2006, the museum has been supplemented by a television museum. The name of the facility was changed to Deutsche Kinemathek - Museum for Film and Television. 1,000 exhibits and 200 film excerpts can be seen in 14 rooms, and 13,000 full-length television programs can be seen in the television media library.
In addition to the permanent exhibition, special exhibitions are shown. During the Berlinale in February each year, exhibitions are also presented that accompany the respective retrospective of the festival.
The museum has a library with extensive holdings of film literature and specialist magazines, including important early magazines such as Der Kinematograph, Lichtbild-Bühne and Film-Kurier. Until it moved to the Film Museum, the library belonged to the German Film and Television Academy Berlin (dffb). The museum is a member of the German Cinematheque Association. The museum
moved on October 31, 2024 and is scheduled to reopen in the second half of 2025 on about a third of its previous space in the E-Werk at Mauerstrasse 79. in the E-Werk, on Maurerstr. In the long term, the museum is to have its own home in a new film house next to the Martin-Gropius-Bau (Berlin-Kreuzberg), which is scheduled to be completed by 2035.

Photography Tips
A wide-angle lens is a great advantage.
Photography with a tripod is not permitted.
The Kinemathek is currently closed due to relocation to Maurerstr. 79. An opening is planned for the second half of 2025. But ATTENTION, this is Berlin. So I'm not so sure whether the date will work out.
I'm not so sure whether you will still be able to see and photograph this staircase in the future.
