Relocation
After six months of construction work on a former printing house, everything is ready to go: The Schwules Museum is moving into its new rooms, in total 1600 square meters spread out over three levels. The ground floor houses four exhibition spaces and a café which can also be used for events. A reference library equipped with research spaces for visitors of all genders finds its home along with office spaces and a workshop in the upper floor. The Museum's singular archival holdings move into the climate-controlled basement storage areas. In addition to a physical expansion, the move also means a thematic expansion for the museum: The Schwules Museum will intensify its function as a center of information on the diversity of sexual identities and concepts of gender.
