Access Kafka in the JMB Library
Public Guided Tour through the Library of the Jewish Museum Berlin (in German)
Monika Sommerer, head of the JMB library, regularly gives tours of the library’s extensive collection and history. She presents special works on changing themes – from first editions of important Jewish authors and art books to prayer, address, cookery and children’s books.
To accompany the current exhibition Access Kafka, this time we are focusing on Franz Kafka, his own works as well as works about him and his influence on literature and art.
