Free admission

On May 19, 2024, International Museum Day will be celebrated under the motto "Discover museums with joy"!
International Museum Day will take place for the 47th time in 2024. It is proclaimed annually by the International Council of Museums (ICOM) on May 18 and celebrated in Germany on a nearby Sunday. The aim of Museum Day is to draw attention to museums in Germany and around the world and to invite visitors to discover the diversity of museums. Museums can present themselves with planned analog offers on the day of action or with digital offers that can already be used on the nationwide platform. #DiscoverMuseums

In Germany, International Museum Day is coordinated nationwide by the German Museums Association and implemented in close cooperation with the museum associations and offices of the federal states at regional level as well as local museums. Museum Day is supported by ICOM Germany. This year, Museum Day is under the patronage of the President of the Federal Council, Manuela Schwesig.
