The Collections
The collections of the Deutsches Museum comprises over 125,000 objects – from the first automobile to the electron microscope. You can discover our highlights and more online here shortly.
Valuable originals such as the Wright Brothers' first powered airplane, the U1 submarine, the diesel engine or the first program-controlled computer - precious exhibits and their diversity make the collection of the Deutsches Museum one of the most important scientific and technical collections in the world. Collecting historically significant objects is still a core task of the museum today. The collection is regularly expanded. Only around a quarter of the objects can be presented in the exhibitions.
