[vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]The collection of the Spandau City History Museum was created at the end of the 19th century. It grew continuously through donations, purchases and permanent loans. It currently comprises over 12,000 objects on everyday culture and the history of Spandau.<\/p>\n

The collection includes items from the fields of handcraft, trade and commerce, industry, agriculture, building, living and everyday culture, city administration, transport, leisure and culture, medicine, natural history, archeology and militaria. This includes furniture, household items, tools, clothing, uniforms, flags, weapons, medals, trophies, models and, last but not least, toys.<\/p>\n

A large part of the collection can be seen in the permanent exhibitions of the Spandau City History Museum<\/a>\u00a0in the armory on the Citadel and in the Gothic House<\/a>\u00a0at Breite Stra\u00dfe 32, Berlin. In addition, the objects are shown in special exhibitions and on loan from other museums. The archive of the Spandau City History Museum<\/a> contributes to its scientific research.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The collection is not only kept safe, but also continuously documented and expanded. We collect objects that were manufactured or used in Spandau, are socially relevant and significant for Spandau’s history.
