Museum at the Robert Koch Institute. The Public Health Visitor Center

The Robert Koch Institute focuses on the health of the population - public health. Scientists research diseases, assess risks and make recommendations on how to protect and improve the health of the people in Germany. A special feature of the RKI is its modern museum and public health visitor centre. Across 180 m², exhibits from the Institute's daily work today, but also from Robert Koch's estate, can be seen - An incubator from the 19th century and a protective suit from the modern high-security laboratory. When the museum reopens, guests and visitors will be able to learn more and come into dialogue with us about Robert Koch's work, the history of the Institute and our current tasks. A museum is a place for learning, networking and science communication Our guests include scientists from all over the world, network partners, political representatives, media, but also interested citizens. You are all invited to visit the museum at the next opportunity, to take part in our guided tours and to use our interactive offers. The museum is located at the historic site at Nordufer 20 in Berlin's Wedding district. This is where the physician and microbiologist Robert Koch worked for many years and, together with his colleagues, produced groundbreaking findings on pathogens and their epidemiology. This brought him and his institute international recognition. Robert Koch and his students were the pioneers of today's biomedical research. But the sometimes very questionable aspects of Robert Koch's work are also discussed. Opening hours Due to the current crisis (COVID-19), the RKI Museum is temporarily closed until further notice.
