We’re renovating for you – a special offer of 10 euros for everyone
From 19 January to 9 February 2026, we’ll be carrying out refurbishment work for you. During these three weeks, the exhibition level dedicated to the national teams will be closed. Among other things, we’ll be expanding the themed areas on women’s football and football amidst war and destruction.
The Bundesliga exhibition, 3D cinema, Treasure Chamber, HALL OF FAME and the special exhibition ‘NETZER’ will remain open
The entire Bundesliga exhibition, including the 360° Bundesliga Show, will remain open without restriction, as will the 3D cinema with its journey through time to the national team’s four World Cup titles, the Treasure Chamber and the HALL OF FAME of German football. A special price of 10 euros for everyone applies throughout the entire refurbishment phase.
The special exhibition ‘NETZER – THE SEVENTIES’ will also remain open without restriction. Admission to the special exhibition costs 12 euros, or 6 euros with a concession; it can also be booked as a combined ticket.
To ensure you get the most out of your visit, we recommend reading the information on this page before you come to the museum.

Are there any interactive stations that visitors can still use?
Yes, amongst other things, the reporter’s booths – where you can try your hand at being a TV reporter – and the referee quiz are available to all guests.
Which areas will be closed from 19 January to 9 February 2026?
We’ll be refurbishing the exhibition for you during the first half of the exhibition period. This means that, amongst other things, the exhibition areas ‘The Miracle of Bern’, ‘Football under National Socialism’, ‘Football in the GDR’, ‘The Golden Generation’ and ‘Women’s Football’ will be closed to the public during these three weeks. However, you’ll still be able to find exhibits and stories on these topics, for example in the ‘Pre-History of the Bundesliga’ exhibition area, in the open Treasure Chamber and in the open HALL OF FAME.
How much will it cost me to visit the German Football Museum whilst it is being refurbished?
From 19 January to 9 February, there is a single admission price for everyone: 10 euros per person – whether for adults, children, families, groups or visitors with a disability rating of 50 or higher. Admission remains free for children under 6 and for one accompanying person for people with a disability (marked ‘B’ on their disability card).
I have a discount or a free ticket from a promotion. Can I still use it during the refurbishment period?
In principle, yes – either our 10-euro promotional price with a refurbishment discount or the relevant discount offer will apply. As a rule, our discounts cannot be combined. Free tickets can, of course, also be redeemed during this period.
Is the special exhibition ‘NETZER – THE SEVENTIES’ open?
Yes, the special exhibition in the museum’s Arena can be visited as normal; either as part of a combined ticket or on its own.
Will the German Football Museum have different opening hours whilst it is being refurbished?
No, the museum is usually open from 10 am to 6 pm, Tuesday to Sunday. You can find details of any exceptional closing dayshere
Will the museum shop and the bistro be open whilst the refurbishment is taking place?
Yes, you’re free to browse the shop at your leisure for souvenirs, mini trophies, books and shirts, and enjoy a bite to eat in the museum’s café. You can also find our well-stocked museum shop online here
Will guided tours, children’s birthday parties and programmes for school groups be available during the refurbishment?
No, that’s not possible. However, given the continuing high demand, it might be a good idea to book an appointment now for a date after 9 February 2026, when there will be new exhibition attractions. We look forward to seeing you!
