The construction project involves the modernization and refurbishment of the building fabric of the Märkisches Museum in Berlin-Mitte. The property is located at Am Köllnischen Park 5, 10179 Berlin, south of the River Spree and has an area of around 4,000 m². The building is divided into 5 different individual structures, which are completely different in height, width and design. It was designed by the architect Ludwig Hoffmann as one of the first buildings in the world as a city museum. The museum was opened in 1908.
The Märkisches Museum has been undergoing a complete overhaul since 2023. The reopening of a new museum and creative quarter at Köllnischer Park is planned for 2028. The neighboring Marinehaus is also located here. The renovation work began in mid-May 2024 and is expected to last until April 2025.
