Join us in celebrating 25 years of the Jewish Museum Berlin (JMB) and 25 years of FRIENDS OF THE JMB!
Sun 23 Aug 2026, 1–7 pm
Where
Museum Garden (in case of bad weather in the Glass Courtyard)
Lindenstraße 9–14, 10969 Berlin
To celebrate this double birthday, we kindly invite FRIENDS, families, neighbors, Berliners, visitors to the city, and the museum’s long-time supporters to join us in the museum garden. Look forward to a lively summer festival featuring a large birthday cake and a musical program with Suli Puschban, the Kapelle der guten Hoffnung, and the Jungle Jazz Band.
Discover the museum on guided tours for adults and children, or get involved yourself: join the anniversary scavenger hunt through the museum – anyone who visits at least three stations will receive a prize. Scavenger hunt maps and prizes are available at the FRIENDS OF THE JMB booth.
You can also bake challah bread in a clay oven, print on T-shirts, and try your hand at giant soap bubbles, chess, and the soccer obstacle course. At the ANOHA Children’s World, you’ll find the ANOHA Rainbow Bike, face painting, rocking horses, and other garden games, as well as the Ark-Building workshop.
Families can also visit the ANOHA Children’s World from 10 am to 6 pm.
And of course, there will be delicious snacks and cold drinks!
