A true treasure chest

One of the best interactive exhibits I´ve ever seen.

In Berlin-Mitte, you can now immerse yourself in this special world and learn just how broadly samurai culture is and how central it is to Japanese history.

This is a must!

You don’t have to be a samurai fan to love this museum.

Grandiloquent museum! The service and overall journey of this museum is 100% worth it.

Great exposition, great (mysterious) atmosphere, and they get extra points from me for the interactive stuff, like lightnig, sound, performances, touch screens, animations, etc.

The collection has no equal in Europe.

One of the best interactive exhibits I’ve ever seen.

Come for the collection, stay for the superlatively designed interactive elements and exquisite displays.

I had the pleasure of visiting the Samurai Museum in Berlin, and it exceeded all my expectations!

Probably the best museum in Berlin.

The museum is probably the best I have visited in my life.

This place is fantastic!

Easily one of the best museums I have ever seen. Incredibly rich collection displayed in the best way. Highly recommended!

Probably the best museum in Berlin.

This is one of the coolest museums in Berlin and one of the best samurai museums in the world, seriously contender for top 5.
