    This place was quite sobering. When we planned to go here, we didn't realize that it was set up with an Auschwitz historical theme. We hesitated for a moment before going in, but am so glad that we did. I learned a lot walking through the building and reading all of the different facts. We were in there for about 2 hours, and could have spent another hour if we didn't have somewhere else we had to be. So incredibly informative. If you are at all interested in human history, this is an absolute must. The one change that I'd like to see, is to have more dates visible on the walls to give a better perspective on when each thing happened. It was chronologically in order, but including a timeline in each section would have been beneficial.

    Amazing exhibition. Great content and very well presented. Very thought provoking and entertaining at the same time. I enjoyed how all the facts were laid and listening to all the testimonies of the people. It’s awesome to see how the people from both sides lived the circumstances and the wall, how resilient they could be. I would recommend not going on a weekend if possible as it was a bit too crowded.

    I liked the place. Went for a game expo and we had a good time. I never found the restrooms and there was not place to eat or drink

    They have really good exhibits that are curated well and have excellent audio guides and descriptions. It's almost always worth the money for an exhibit here. They also have a free coat check, which is really nice in the winter.

    We visited the excellent exhibition telling the story of the Berlin Wall. Very well curated with insightful information about the geopolitical background to the cold war as well as recounting the experiences of the people whose lives were so dramatically affected. Friendly and helpful staff were on hand to assist with whatever needs people had.

    Very nice exhibition. If you are visiting Madrid, don't miss it. It's very nicely done. We spent more than 4 hours around. Book your tickets online in advance. When we arrived there, tickets were sold out and there were some people either complaining or buying for the next day

    I really like this exhibition hall because they always have interesting exhibitions.

  • 5/5 Rocio M. 6 years ago on Google
    I visited an impressive exhibition there. You can book tickets online before, and the price was reasonable. Kind staff. The main entrance is in Castellana St. I highly recommend Auschwitz exhibition. The space design and its illumination is amazing... the story behind the exhibition makes you reflect on human being nature.

    Auschwitz exhibition. A reminder of the past. Sad, painful and heart breaking.

  • 5/5 Howard F. 5 years ago on Google
    They have an excellent exhibit about Auschwitz. It's very extensive and extremely well done. Very disturbing but relevant to the worldwide political situation today. A must-see.
