We recommend booking your time slot ticket on our ticket shop before your visit. A small number of remaining tickets are available at the ticket counter. If there is a large number of visitors at ANOHA, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to enter and acquire tickets without a reservation.
Group visits are only possible with an advance reservation.
On the weekends, public holidays and during the Berlin school holidays, the Café offers a small selection of sustainable snacks including lye pastries, popcorn, freshly baked cake, coffee and other beverages. On weekdays, please visit the Museum Café at the Jewish Museum Berlin (located in the Libeskind building across the street) or one of the nearby cafés. You are also welcome to eat a snack in the designated area of ANOHA.

Please Note
- Children can only visit ANOHA when accompanied by an adult and vice versa: adults can only visit ANOHA when accompanying a child.
- Every child and every adult needs their own ticket to visit ANOHA.
- Nursery school (kita/kindergarten) and school groups should note that each subgroup must include at least one adult chaperon. Nursery school (kita/kindergarten) groups should have one adult per ten children and elementary school groups should have one adult per fifteen children.
- For adults who are not accompanied by a child, we offer Adult Tours to ANOHA.
- Group visits are only possible with an advance reservation.
- We are delighted about the great interest in our children’s museum ANOHA. In recent years, many people have let their booked online tickets for ANOHA expire in large numbers. This has greatly reduced the available ticket contingents and access options for other families and groups. We have therefore decided to introduce a booking fee. The fee of 3 € will be charged on the total basket (not per ticket). It is non-refundable. If you have to postpone your visit, this is a new booking. The booking fee will then be charged again. Tickets at the museum ticket office are still available free of charge. Thank you for your understanding.
Non-Slip Socks
ANOHA is a “non-slip socks museum.” Please bring non-slip socks with you. Entering the Ark barefoot or with street shoes is not allowed. Non-slip socks can be purchased at the cash desk for 3 €.
