We liked the museum a lot. It is a medium-sized museum, about 100 meters from Potsdamer Platz in Berlin-Mitte. The Deutsches Spionagemuseum Berlin also has a shop with books about espionage, a cafe, clean toilets and a cinema. The exhibition area is about 3000 m², there are about 300 objects on display.
