Description [EN]
At the Neuen Markt in Potsdam stands the Brandenburg Museum für Zukunft, Gegenwart und Geschichte, housed in the historic coach stables and serving as an open forum for active engagement with Brandenburg and Prussian history.
In the museum’s operation the overview exhibition "Brandenburg.Ausstellung" forms the permanent centre; supplementary rotating special exhibitions present content in the fitted-out upper floor. Interpretation is provided through media stations and historical exhibits drawn from various museums and collections across Brandenburg.
The museum was founded in 2003, when suitable rooms became available following the comprehensive renovation of the Kutschpferdestall and adjacent buildings. It is sponsored by the State of Brandenburg and the state capital Potsdam. The institution cooperates with the Potsdam-Museum, the Stadt- und Landesbibliothek Potsdam, dem Brandenburgischen Landesamt für Denkmalpflege und Archäologischen Landesmuseum, der Stiftung Stadtmuseum Berlin sowie dem Kulturzentrum Zamek in Poznań. In 2024 the institution was renamed; until then it was known as the Haus der Brandenburgisch-Preußischen Geschichte.
