Madame Tussauds Berlin: tickets, visit length and our verdict

Updated on October 5, 2026

The Madame Tussauds wax museum is at Unter den Linden 74, a stone's throw from the Brandenburg Gate. It brings together more than 100 wax figures and more than 10 interactive zones: music and film stars, footballers, politicians and figures from German history. People come mainly for selfies with celebrities, as a family or with friends. The museum is open every day, generally from 10:00 to 18:00 with last entry at 17:00 (hours seen in October 2026; they vary with the season). Allow about 1.5 to 2 hours for the visit.

Highlights

The entrance on Unter den Linden

The museum is at number 74 on Unter den Linden, the avenue leading to the Brandenburg Gate, and its red and silver sign is easy to find. It is a handy starting point before or after exploring the district.

The film and music stars

The zones devoted to culture, music, film and television bring together figures such as Taylor Swift, Harry Styles and Beyoncé. The museum regularly adds new figures; among the latest are the brothers Bill and Tom Kaulitz and the footballer Lamine Yamal.

The themed zones

More than 10 interactive zones are on offer, including "Berlin Vibes" (new), a football stadium with Manuel Neuer, an awards party, and a set inspired by the series "Babylon Berlin". You can have your photo taken next to the figures.

Tips

Prices seen in October 2026: adult admission is from €22 online, against €29.50 at the ticket desk, a saving of up to €7.50 if you book ahead. A combined ticket with the Berlin Dungeon is offered from €39, and groups of 10 or more pay €19 per adult. The lower child fare is not detailed on the booking page: check it when you book. Online tickets can be rescheduled free of charge up to the day before your visit. Our verdict: it is a paid and fairly expensive attraction that appeals mainly to selfie fans and to families with teenagers; if you are visiting Berlin on a tight budget, start with the many free sights (see free things to do in Berlin).
