Helmut Newton Foundation Berlin

Photographers' Spot

"Explore the Museum für Fotografie, home to Helmut Newton’s bold, vibrant works. A winter retreat for photography lovers — and free with a museum pass!"

The building of Museum für Fotografie that houses the Helmut Newton Foundation is steeped in its own history—formerly a supper club, it now celebrates the colourful, striking legacy of Helmut Newton’s photography. Newton’s vibrant fashion shots and bold nude portraits fill the space, transporting visitors into the diverse world he captured through his lens. Among the most unforgettable are the candid shots of him and his wife, taken during their travels; they add an intimate, personal touch to the exhibit.

As you know, winter in Berlin may bring limited outdoor activities, but for photography lovers, this gallery is a warm retreat, alive with visual stories and artistry. And what is the best part? You can use your museum pass to explore it all for free!

Enjoy the artistic captures!

Bikini Berlin

Not your usual concept mall

"Bikini Berlin" is not your typical mall. Looking over the Zoo and the memorial church, with just some carefully chosen shops, it's in the right direction.
