Leaving the train station heading towards the TV-tower, you will have to walk around the building to find the entrance on the opposite side.

If you are coming from the Museum Island (Museumsinsel), the entrance will be right behind the Neptun’s fountain (Neptunbrunnen).

Since parking space is difficult to find, it is better to arrive by public transport. 

The Station Berlin Alexanderplatz is close to the exhibition and hosts many Metro- Bus- and street train lines.

It’s address is Panoramastraße 1a, 10178 Berlin. Get Directions 

DDR Museum + Body Worlds Berlin

The DDR Museum is just 700 metres (half of a mile) from Berlin’s Body Worlds, which is why some tourists prefer to explore them on the same day.  

At the DDR museum, you can view hundreds of unique relics from Germany’s socialist history in the DDR Museum.

This experience delves into well-known East Berlin issues, including the Stasi and the Wall, and ordinary life for DDR residents. 

Berlin TV Tower + Body Worlds Berlin

The Berliner Fernsehturm, often known as the Berlin TV Tower, was built in the 1960s by the German Democratic Republic’s administration (GDR). 

It is Germany’s highest tower, standing 368 metres (1207 feet) tall and visible throughout most of Berlin.

Since the Body Worlds Berlin is in the basement of the TV Tower, many tourists buy the combo ticket and explore both on the same day.
