Your BODY WORLDS team
---
The BODY WORLDS at Menschen Museum gives insights into the highly complex structures of the human body and shows what connects us, keeps us upright and in motion, and what makes us laugh and love.
Moreover, the Menschen Museum opens the visitors' eyes to various facets that determine our existence:
HAPPINESS & UNHAPPINESS
The pursuit of happiness and love dominate our lives. But what determines whether we are happy or not?
EXCESS & MODERATION
Modern life is comfortable. Yet at the same time, we long for a perfect body, vitality and health. How can we find the right balance?
PRESSURE & RELEASE
Too much pressure is bad for body and mind. How can we resist and refuel our body?
GLUTTONY & RESTRAINT
What our body needs for a long, healthy life often contrasts with how we feed it. What can our body bear?
CHANCE & DESTINY
Life is a mystery. Humanity has always been fascinated by the question of where we come from. What determines whether we are alive and healthy?

Address & Directions
Plan your visit
Address
Directly at the TV-Tower
Panoramastraße 1A
10178 Berlin
You will find the exhibition in the basement of the TV-tower. Leaving the train station heading towards the TV-tower, you will have to walk around the building to find the entrance on the opposite side of it.
Coming from the “Museumsinsel” (Museum Island) you will find the entrance right behind the “Neptunbrunnen” (Neptun’s fountain).
Public Transport
We recommend using the public transportation, since parking space is rare and expensive. The Station Berlin Alexanderplatz is close to the exhibition and hosts many Metro- Bus- and street train lines. Please find the best connection at BVG.

& current
At the basement of the tallest building in Germany and Berlin's landmark, the TV-Tower, you will find one of the most visited, scientific exhibitions in Berlin on 1,600 square meters. The BODY WORLDS Museum not only provides visitors deep insights into the anatomy of the human body, but also present the perfect setting for events that focus on topics such as medicine, care, health, fitness and well-being.
Directly connected to the museum we can offer a 400 square meters conference area, consisting of a light-flooded and spacious reception area and a presentation room for 50 people. The rooms are separable and can accommodate up to 200 people in total. The room ensemble is individually playable and is suitable for presentations, events, product launches, lectures, conferences, corporate incentives, but also seminars or courses. The equipment includes flexible, high-quality conference furniture and modern presentation equipment. A professional event team takes care of the complete organization of staff, catering, technical support and additional program.
The centrally located location is just a three-minute walk from the S-Bahn and subway junction Alexanderplatz. Attractions like the Red Town Hall, Hackescher Markt, Gendarmenmarkt and the Nicolaiviertel are within walking distance.

Special highlights of this new collection include man's best friend, a plastinated dog, showing how similar anatomical structures are to those of humans.
The plastinated Lion »Icke«, originally born at the Berlin Zoo, impresses with extraordinary muscles. Weighing 200 kg, the animal has strong hind limbs that can propel incredible leaps of nearly 12 metres.
Spannende Ausstellung Ich kann mir gut vorstellen, dass diese Ausstellung nicht für jeden das richtige ist. Trotzdem ist diese Ausstellung sehr spannend.
Aus einer medizinischen Betrachtungsweise werden die inneren Organe des Menschen dargestellt. Diverse Darstellungen sind unglaublich. Diese Ausstellung im kompletten Ausmass zu begreifen und zu verstehen ist kaum möglich. Wer hingeht sollte sich mindestens zwei Stunden Zeit nehmen.
War vor ein paar jahren schon mal dort gewesen, da War es in Köln und nun wieder hin nach Bochum.... Faszination diese Ausstellung und ein dank das sich menschen dazu bereit erklärt haben, den menschlichen Körper so zu veranschaulichen
A fascinating look on the human body. It was informative, arty and body/mind preachy. The audio guide is free though it can feel a bit like a GCSE lesson on the human body. Would recommend ?
