We consider accessibility crucial to the success of Berlin Art Week—all of our guests should feel comfortable and welcome. We hope we can ease your visit to BAW Garten this year with the following information. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact us: [email protected]
- This year, BAW Garten will not be entirely barrier-free, since the grounds around Gropius Bau are cobblestoned.
- The following areas are equipped with anti-slide mats for wheelchairs, baby carriages, etc.: the food area, the talk stage, the workshop area, and the open air cinema.
- There are barrier-free lavatories available both inside Gropius Bau and in the outdoors area.
- If you require assistance to access the non-barrier-free parts of BAW Garten, please ask the security or the location managers at the Info Point.
- The closest barrier-free public transport stops are S+U-Bahnhof Potsdamer Platz, which is reached using the lines U2, S1, S2 und S25 and the bus stops M29 (Anhalter Bahnhof) or M41 (Abgeordnetenhaus). If you have any questions or difficulties, please contact the mobility service of Deutsche Bahn, 030 65212888.
- If you arrive by car, at the Gropius Bau are a limited number of barrier-free parking spaces available.
In 1989/90, thousands of courageous people took to the streets calling for freedom and democracy. Their efforts, known collectively as the Peaceful Revolution, ultimately brought down the Berlin Wall as well as an entire political system. Berlin is gearing up to honour the achievements of the Peaceful Revolution with an installation consisting of thousands of voices that will be displayed along a central section of the former Berlin Wall around November 9. We invite you to discuss the values of freedom and democracy and their relevance today in the workshop and to write down your wishes and demands for the preservation of these values. Become part of the installation and send your message to the world!
Open to all, no registration needed and in German
