The Humboldt-Box shows visitors the new Berlin Palace Humboldt Forum from some surprising angles. It highlights various impressive aspects related to the palace's former and latest history and to the state-of-the-art construction technology used on the site. One exhibit which has proved particularly popular with the audience is the large-scale model of "Berlin around 1900".
The Humboldt Box is currently one of the city's most visited attractions. It is the showcase for the Berlin Palace Humboldt Forum http://www.humboldt-forum.de/en/humboldt-forum/philosophy/. On display are examples of innovative exhibition concepts. The Humboldt brothers would have approved of the "haven for arts and sciences" that is being created here. The tour around the interactively designed exhibition floors becomes a journey of discovery that engages all senses. The top floor offers views across the palace construction site and the museums on Museumsinsel. It may be a good idea to set aside some time to spend at the café/restaurant located there, which has panorama terraces.
