The history behind the Long Night of Museums
The Long Night of the Museums is a true Berlin original. The first event of this kind takes place in February 1997 with 18 participating museums. To this day, the concept has proved to be a complete success. Thus the number of museums grows to over 70 today. Other cities have also adopted the concept: there are now 120 museum nights worldwide, such as in Amsterdam or Paris. Every year, the event represents the highlight of the cultural scene and inspires with an enormous variety of programmes: whether special tours, workshops, concerts or a look behind the scenes - at the 700 or so events in just one night, there is guaranteed to be something exciting for everyone.
