Parking space

Due to very limited parking spaces, the journey is recommended by public transport.

There is a parking space for people with disabilities directly in front of the KW next to the bicycle stands. You can park here during our opening hours and with the relevant identification.

You can find further information about barrier-free travels in Berlin under www.berlin.de as well as under www.mobidat.net.

KW is located in a former margarine factory in Auguststraße, Berlin-Mitte. The building, which is designed as a four-sided courtyard, is protected as a historic monument and therefore only partially accessible for visitors with limited mobility.

We would like to make the visit as smooth and barrier-free as possible for all visitors. To plan your visit with us, please write an email a week in advance to your visit to: mediation@kw-berlin.de or contact our staff via telephone: +49 30 243459-132.
Please note that there may be a waiting time for visits without prior registration.

Please find more detailed information on accessibility here. 

The annual ticket KW Lover* grants you for the full length of a year free admission to all exhibitions at KW Institute for Contemporary Art during the regular opening hours, as well as the exclusive access to Pogo Bar events. 

As holder of the annual ticket you will be regularly informed about the program and all events of KW. You can furthermore purchase tickets for all events to a reduced price. 

*The name KW Lover* refers to the project Markierung by artist Nedko Solakov that was realized within the framework of Relaunch at KW in 2013 (curated by Ellen Blumenstein).
