Welcome to the Computerspielemuseum

Dear visitors,

Our museum, which was opened in Berlin in 1997, was the world's first permanent exhibition devoted to digital interactive entertainment culture. Since then, we have documented the development of the medium at over 30 national and international events. Our new permanent exhibition “Computerspiele. Evolution eines Mediums” ("Computer Games. Evolution of a Medium") opened on the 21st of January, 2011. You will find more than 300 exhibits in an interactive and experiment-friendly environment that conveys the cultural history of computer and video games. You are invited on an entertaining expedition to meet the game players of the 21st century. Numerous rare original exhibits, playable classic games and assorted media productions help you exploring the world of  "Homo Ludens Digitalis”.

We would like to thank the Foundation for Youth and Social Work (fjs eV) for more than 13 years of commitment, which has allowed us to present the collection as a permanent exhibition.

The concept development for the exhibition was sponsored by the Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg. The exhibition’s interior furnishings were sponsored by the German Lottery Foundation Berlin, the European Union and the European Regional Development Fund (Investing in Your Future).
