Musikinstrumentenmuseum Museum of Musical Instruments

Tiergartenstraße 1 Berlin, Berlin 10785 +49 (0)30 2548 1178 http://www.sim.spk-berlin.de

From toy pianos and pocket violins to a mighty Wurlitzer organ—the Museum of Musical Instruments boasts of a huge collection of classical and modern instruments and documents the history and traditions of European music. Inside, however, there is nothing but silence. Just hundreds of intricately decorated cembalos, tiny flutes and lots of strange, long-forgotten instruments, all longing to be played. The late afternoon and evening is the time for music, with concerts taking place on a frequent basis. The Wurlitzer organ is brought to life every Saturday at midday. In fact, the whole museum was actually built around the organ, which you can inspect through the built-in windows in its body. Review © 2009, Wcities
