Posted by The Madame Tussauds is the famous wax museum in London. There is an exhibition of celebrities made of wax since the late 18th century. Since 1970, the famous exhibition of wax figures has also been held in other cities. In 1970 the first branch opened in Amsterdam, in 2008 Madame Tussauds opened in Berlin near the Brandenburg Gate in the street Unter den Linden. In the meantime there are branches in more than 20 cities around the world, in Germany there is the wax museum Madame Tussauds only in Berlin. In Austria there is a branch in Vienna.
Tickets should be bought in advance on the Internet at this link (usually cheaper online and you avoid long queues at the cash desk).
Wax figures of prominent persons in life size are exhibited. Such figures look very real. You almost have the feeling that they are living people. A highlight for visitors of the Madame Tussauds is the possibility to photograph themselves together with the real wax figures. On photos, the figures look even more real. So you can see yourself with Angela Merkel, Heidi Klum, Boris Becker or Franz Beckenbauer.

On site adults pay 25 Euro. Children up to 14 years pay slightly less. It is a private museum, which lives from the entrance fee, therefore the relatively high prices. Nevertheless, we think that every person should definitely have a look at a wax museum at least once in his life, it is really something special.
Important: You should definitely buy the tickets for the Madame Tussauds Berlin in advance on the internet.

2. The online tickets are usually cheaper than the ticket at the ticket office in Madame Tussauds Berlin.
