Berliner Leben im Biedermeier

In the organizer's words:

Humboldt, Schinkel and the Knoblauch family

Welcome to the Biedermeier era! The Museum Knoblauchhaus, one of the few remaining Berlin houses from this era, gives you an insight into the lifestyle of the Biedermeier period with the reconstructed living rooms of the Knoblauch family.

A free audio guide leads you through the exhibition in German, English, Spanish and Turkish. On the second floor, you will get to know the members of the family and their contributions to the city. On the second floor, everyday objects, pictures and documents provide information about social life, the economy, politics and architecture of the period from 1815 to 1845.

In addition to the permanent exhibition, the "Berlin Salon" on the upper floor of the Knoblauchhaus deals with the metropolitan network of the silk merchant and politician Carl Knoblauch in the first half of the 19th century. The focus is on prominent personalities from his circle of friends in Berlin: the Prussian star architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel, the explorer Alexander von Humboldt and his brother, the educational reformer Wilhelm von Humboldt.
