Session expires
The session is about to expire.
In Berlin, the most different ideas, visions and characters meet daily and connect to create a unique atmosphere. We make this culture of exchange and inspiration a tangible, noticeable and perceptible experience. Because at Dussmann das KulturKaufhaus, we feature contemporary issues and trends of the capital and the whole world ? on all of our channels!
Unconventional and overcoming borders.
Our story
A department store for cultural media, open at almost all hours or a corner shop for culture ? that?s
what founder Peter Dussmann had in mind when he broke with the conventional ideas of the retail industry
and created the KulturKaufhaus where different cultural topics met with a carefully curated selection
and a comprehensive service.
And all of that on Friedrichstraße ? a special place, even then able to overcome borders and connect
cultures, here where East and West used to meet.
A colorful mixture of KulturLiebhaber:innen and Kultivist:innen
Our team
And it is not least our precious staff who represent the basic idea behind the KulturKaufhaus on a daily
basis. We are a big team of 200 culture lovers from all over the world, and are very happy to
provide you with our personal cultural tips as Kultivist:innen.
