Museum of Applied Art Description

(Local Name: Kunstgewerbemuseum) Germany's first Museum of Applied Art was founded in 1867. From 1921-44 it was housed in the Berlin City Palace and after the Second World War a part was moved to the Palace at Köpenick. The remainder was housed provisionally in Charlottenburg Palace until the new museum in a purpose-built building in the Culture Forum at Kemperplatz was finally declared open in May, 1985. This new museum now displays exhibits from all spheres of European applied art, from the early Middle Ages to the present day. Exhibited on four floors are ceramics, porcelain, glass, bronzes, gold enamel and work by Byzantine goldsmiths, silver vessels, furniture, clocks, textiles, embroidery, decorative carpets
