German Architecture Museum

This museum is in a villa from the year 1912, with a glass gallery. It is painted all in white and has 24 major models, from the stone age to the present. The permanent exhibition "From prehistoric shelters to skyscrapers" shows the diversity of the history of architecture and settlements. During my last visit they were showing great photographs of a Japanese architectural firm, which were stunning. The museum also has photographic exhibitions and conferences, attracting visitors to events related to cinema, literature and music. With a collection of 180,000 architectural plans and drawings and 600 models, it is a real treasure.

The German Architecture Museum is an Architecture Centre on the Museum Embankment, Frankfurt. It's one of several German museums devoted exclusively to architecture, like Karlsruhe Südwestdeutschen Architecture Archive, the Museum of Architecture of the Technical University of Munich (in the Pinakothek der Moderne) and the Architecture Museum of the Technical University of Berlin.
