4D Museum for German History
The Deutschlandmuseum is not a virtual museum, but a real 4D museum. Visitors walk through a true-to-life forest with trees, a knight’s castle made of stone, a timber-framed printer’s room, a trench made of sandbags and earth, and much more. Detailed sets, breath-taking projections, surprising sounds and even scents turn a 3D museum into a 4D experience.
The difference between 3D and 360° or Panorama
A journey back in time for all of your senses
360-degree panoramas and panorama museums are one-dimensional paintings or projections: In the Deutschlandmuseum you really immerse yourself in the scenery and see 360° of history built around you. Rocks, stone facades, brick walls or an S-Bahn carriage: you are right in the middle of it! You can not only feel the history, but also smell and hear it, thanks to an immersive experience design. This combination of a museum and a amusement park design is not only unique in Berlin, but in the whole world.
It is precisely this multisensory experience, like in a 4D cinema, that creates another dimension and makes the experience in the Deutschlandmuseum entirely different from a conventional museum visit. The tour is arranged as a linear journey through time. This creates yet another dimension: the time axis. Visitors move from the uprising of the Germanic tribes at the Battle of Teutoburg Forest 2000 years ago, through the Middle Ages, the German Empire and the division of Germany finishing in the present day.
Twelve eras of German history can be experienced in just an hour. Objects are arranged in the life-size structures and do not look at all like artefacts in a conventional museum display. The use of projectins give selected scenes a breadth and depth which completes the sensation of historical place and time. The Deutschlandmuseum is the illusion museum, which creates the impression of actually being present in each epoch on display. Experience it for yourself!
360° often just means a panoramic view – you are surrounded by a seamless image. The Deutschlandmuseum offers much more than that: far from just standing in front of a picture or projection, the visitor is placed in the middle of a scene and enjoys an immersive experience.
3D describes the spatial representation in three dimensions, so 4D means at least a further level. The addition of the immersive progression through time means adds a fourth dimension to the Deutschlandmuseum. The immersive experience is intensified by the addition of sounds and smells, making it an experience for all the senses – that’s how 4D works.
A 3D experience usually means the ability to interact with 3D objects. 4D experiences are augmented by at least a further dimension, such as time, or the appeal to further senses such as smell.
