The Humboldt Forum is a museum dedicated to human history, art and culture, located in the Berlin Palace on the Museum Island in the historic centre of Berlin. It is named in honour of the Prussian scholars Wilhelm and Alexander von Humboldt. Considered the “German equivalent” of the British Museum, the Humboldt Forum houses the non-European collections of the Berlin State Museums, temporary exhibitions and public events. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it opened digitally on 16 December 2020 and became accessible to the general public on 20 July 2021.
In 2023, the Humboldt Forum recorded approximately 1.7 million entries, counted by sensors at the building’s entrances. The foundation described the institution as the most visited museum in Germany. However, this figure includes all persons entering the building, including visitors to restaurants, shops, and events, and differs from international standards that typically count only museum visitors. Consequently, the Humboldt Forum does not appear in international museum attendance rankings such as those published by The Art Newspaper.
