The 4D-Museum
A museum as you have never experienced it before
The Deutschlandmuseum addresses four senses on all dimensions. Taking you on a journey through time, our exhibition combines realistic installations with breathtaking projections and spectacular effects to recreate an immersive experience of the past. Combining the smells and sounds from past ages with historical artefacts, we generate a spellbinding experience of 2,000 years of German history.
Immerse yourselves in history
The exhibition of the Deutschlandmuseum is not only immersive, but also interactive. Many stations invite visitor participation: become a minstrel, operate Gutenberg’s printing press, dance the night away during the 1920s or design your own flag with AI.

FAQ
What constitutes a 360° Museum?
In a conventional museum, visitors look in just one direction. At the Deutschlandmuseum, however, you are surrounded by immersive worlds, with every wall, the floor, and the ceiling fully designed and enhanced with digital elements.
What is a 4D museum?
A museum to immerse yourself in! 4 dimensions engage your senses: sight, sound, touch, and smell.
What is the difference between a 3D and a 4D experience?
A 3D experience typically involves seeing, hearing, and feeling. The sense of smell is added as the 4th dimension, fully transporting you to another time.
What does 4D look like?
4D looks like 3D, but adds scent and touch, elements often missing in 3D cinemas or museums. That’s why the Deutschlandmuseum is described as a 4D experience.
