The History Of The Computerspielemuseum In One Minute

The Computerspielemuseum in Berlin is the first of its kind in Europe. Its celebration of the many (leisurely) avenues of computers makes it a fun way to tour a museum. It’s a great cultural alternative for those who find themselves shying away from the hefty information overload of regular museums .

Some might think having a whole institution dedicated to the art, enjoyment and general craft of computer games might be unnecessary, but this hugely important part of contemporary culture cannot be ignored. If anything, it should be celebrated. The Computerspielemuseum is an excellent tool to deepen our understanding of these fascinating complex mechanisms.

With its first fixed exhibition dating back to 1997, this institution dedicated to the interactive world of technological entertainment has been riding the evolution of this medium for almost two decades. Since opening its doors, it has not only exhibited nationally, but internationally as well.

The pieces that make up its exhibitions are thanks to the Association for the Advancement of Youth and Social Work, a non-profit organization that has worked tirelessly to put together a stellar collection for 13 years. With these various components in tow, Gameshouse gGmbH is able to successfully run Computerspielemuseum and make it what it is today.

Since you are here, we would like to share our vision for the future of travel - and the direction Culture Trip is moving in.

Culture Trip launched in 2011 with a simple yet passionate mission: to inspire people to go beyond their boundaries and experience what makes a place, its people and its culture special and meaningful — and this is still in our DNA today. We are proud that, for more than a decade, millions like you have trusted our award-winning recommendations by people who deeply understand what makes certain places and communities so special.

Increasingly we believe the world needs more meaningful, real-life connections between curious travellers keen to explore the world in a more responsible way. That is why we have intensively curated a collection of premium small-group trips as an invitation to meet and connect with new, like-minded people for once-in-a-lifetime experiences in three categories: Culture Trips, Rail Trips and Private Trips. Our Trips are suitable for both solo travelers, couples and friends who want to explore the world together.

Culture Trips are deeply immersive 5 to 16 days itineraries, that combine authentic local experiences, exciting activities and 4-5* accommodation to look forward to at the end of each day. Our Rail Trips are our most planet-friendly itineraries that invite you to take the scenic route, relax whilst getting under the skin of a destination. Our Private Trips are fully tailored itineraries, curated by our Travel Experts specifically for you, your friends or your family.

We know that many of you worry about the environmental impact of travel and are looking for ways of expanding horizons in ways that do minimal harm - and may even bring benefits. We are committed to go as far as possible in curating our trips with care for the planet. That is why all of our trips are flightless in destination, fully carbon offset - and we have ambitious plans to be net zero in the very near future.
