Museum

Currently, we are operating a 'museum light' at Berlin Ostbahnhof. In a small space, we aim to present a variety of frequently changing poster exhibitions from our collection. Once we find our permanent location, we look forward to offering you a more extensive collection of exhibits, historical events, and guided tours through the rich history of the Berlin S-Bahn.

Feel free to subscribe to our newsletter to stay up to date.

There is also a bookstand on-site where you can purchase antique literature, such as regulations of the Deutsche Reichsbahn, timetables, schedule books, and promotional materials on selected topics related to the Berlin S-Bahn.

The Berlin S-Bahn Museum’s project space, "Museum Light," is located at Berlin Ostbahnhof. It’s easily accessible via all S-Bahn lines that run through Ostbahnhof, numerous bus routes, and even long-distance trains.

Our project space at Ostbahnhof is currently open:

Admission is 2 euros, with a discounted rate of 1 euro.

As a volunteer-run museum, we are always happy to welcome new team members. You don’t need to be an expert — interest and enthusiasm are more than enough. Please become part of our team and help us engage others in the history of Berlin and its transport technology. Whether it’s welcoming visitors, helping prepare new exhibitions, or assisting with archiving, we’d love to have you.

If you decide to join us on a long-term basis, membership in the German Railway Customers' Association (Deutscher Bahnkunden-Verband e. V.), the museum’s sponsor, is required.

We are often asked whether we accept items from estates, house clearances, etc. Yes! We would be delighted to take them, ensuring that many unique artefacts, each with their own story, are preserved for future generations.
