Urban Nation

4.7 (4,814)Free

Urban Nation treats street and urban art as a serious curatorial subject, with rotating exhibitions and a building whose own exterior often doubles as canvas space for participating artists. Free admission removes any barrier to entry, and reviewers consistently cite that combined with its central Schöneberg location as reasons it's an easy, worthwhile add to a Berlin itinerary. Its very high trendy and aesthetic scores, paired with a 4.7 rating, reflect a museum that's fully in step with Berlin's contemporary art scene rather than a niche or dated presentation of graffiti culture. It suits visitors interested in street art specifically, as well as anyone wanting a quick, visually striking stop between other sights.

What people say

"We loved visiting this museum since it’s free to enter and also was near our hotel. It offers great insights on some of the local and international graffiti artists and features some of their work. There was no queue to enter so you can visit throughout the day. At the entrance there is also a qr code that you can scan that takes you to an online tour guide which we found helpful. This is honestly a great find in Berlin and a must visit!"
