Jewish Museum Berlin
The Jewish Museum Berlin (Jüdisches Museum Berlin) opened in 2001 in Daniel Libeskind's groundbreaking deconstructivist building — the architect's first major public commission, and one of the most emotionally charged buildings in the world. The zinc-clad form is shaped around three axes representing exile, the Holocaust, and continuity, with deliberate disorientation built into the architecture.
