About this trip

Berlin offers inspiration for budding young artists wherever you turn. A city that is forever changing, you will find some of the best Street Art in the world. You can include in your tour a Graffiti and Street Art workshop which starts with a tour to see some of the best mural art and installations in the city, followed by an opportunity to produce their own art work.  

Many of Berlin's most popular galleries are located close to each other meaning you can cover a wide variety of art in a short visit. Berlin is a perfect destination for College students to find their way around. 

No visit to Berlin would be complete for Art & Design students without a visit to the Holocaust Memorial and the Jewish Museum where they will see superb examples of how Art, Sculpture and Remembrance can work well together.

Other Art & Design Visits

  • Alte Nationalgalerie
    The Alte Nationalgalerie towers over Museum Island and is home to one of the most important collections of 19th Century paintings. It holds an extensive collection of work from both German and International artists – making it a good opportunity for students to see a variety of work stretching two centuries. 
  • Altes Museum
    The Alte Museum is Berlin’s oldest museum and is full of art as well as rich in history. Since being damaged in the Second World War the museum has become one of the most popular in Berlin due to the interesting and varied nature of the work it holds.
  • Bode Museum
    The Bode Museum focuses on Medieval Art. It contains a wealth of art and artefacts from the Byzantine and Medieval periods and focuses primarily on Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, France and Spain.
  • The Deutsche Guggenheim
    The Deutsche Guggenheim is one of the most exciting and experiential art museums in Germany – and is a unique collaboration between the Guggenheim Foundation and Deutsche Bank.
  • Gemäldegalerie Art Collection
    Gemäldegalerie is one of the worlds most impressive collections of European paintings ranging from the 13th to the 18th Century with the Main Gallery being home to over 900 masterpieces.
  • Holocaust Memorial
    The Holocaust Memorial gives students the opportunity to appreciate and understand the true devastation of the Holocaust. With 2711 grey stone slabs bearing no markings, the memorial covers 205,000 square feet and is set on an uneven path that creates a feeling of instability and unrest – allowing students to witness the scale of the lives that were lost.
  • Asisi Panorama – The Wall
    Right across from Checkpoint Charlie is a large cylindrical building made of steel. Inside is a fascinating display of life in the vicinity of the wall in divided Berlin during the Cold War. The display shows the contrast of daily life on both sides of the wall according to the memories of Yadegar Asisi's, who actually lived in Kreuzberg. It’s great visit for helping students to understand life on both sides of the wall.
