Berlin_I.M. Pei

The Deutsches Historisches Museum presents its exhibitions in two buildings: the unique Baroque Zeughaus (armoury) on the avenue Unter den Linden and the adjacent modern Exhibition Hall designed by the Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei.

The Exhibition Hall of I.M. Pei can be reached by passing through the inner courtyard. Transparency, light and movement are the architectonic programme of this urban masterpiece with its impressive perspectives and spatial interconnections. By constructing sight lines from one building to the other, I.M. Pei has created an achitectonic correspondence between past and present.
