Industriesalon Schöneweide (2009)

Museum and Visitor Center – The Industriesalon opened in 2009. Its rotating exhibitions relate the history of the industrial zone and its transformation into a smart city quarter. The permanent collection focuses on the working conditions of the old Television Electronics Factory, once the largest production facility in East Berlin. Visitors can delve into Berlin’s industrial past on the “Electropolis Tour” (with a panoramic view of the city from the tower of the Peter Behrens Building), on a tour of the Transformer Works, and on a puzzlehunt. Also of note: part of the surrounding industrial area is being developed as an arts and culture center. Don’t miss the Reinbeckhallen and the Spreehalle. The Industriesalon is also actively involved in developing ideas for how Berlin’s landmarked industrial heritage can be put to modern use.
