This 90-minute guided tour will give you an in-depth understanding of PETRI Berlin. Step inside the excavated walls of the Latin school and learn how archaeology is shedding new light on the medieval origins of the city. The burials at Petrikirchhof and the remains of the last three St. Peter’s churches provide an overview of 800 years of Berlin history.

Then follow the path of a find upwards and gain insights into our workshops and archaeological work processes – from the arrival of the find to its restoration and storage in the display magazine. Finally, a new view of the city awaits you on the loggia.

Cost for a group of max. 20 people: €150 plus admission

Brought together by fate and marked by abuse and destruction, the ‘Berlin Sculpture Find’ has become a globally recognised symbol that, more powerfully than many intact works of art, illustrates the persecution of modern art by the Nazi dictatorship.

But why were these works of classical modernism considered ‘degenerate art’? How were they displayed at the propaganda exhibition of the same name in Munich in 1937? Who were the artists? The tour sheds light on this history and the discovery of the figures during excavations in Berlin-Mitte in 2010. We get up close to the sculptures, see what can be repaired through restoration, but also how much has been lost in the debris of the bombing.
