New Visitor Center at Berlin Brandenburg Airport

Today the new Visitor Center at Berlin Brandenburg Airport opened to the general public. The fence around the airport building site has been moved to allow visitors to access the Airport City direct by car. The airport operating areas, the terminal and all buildings that will be inside the future security zone will remain behind the building site perimeter fence.  

Inside the Visitor Center, an exhibition informs visitors about Berlin Brandenburg Airport. The new center also includes a lounge and conference area. Events can be held in the new Visitor Center and can, for instance, be combined with a tour of the airport. The Visitor Center and a range of modern conference suites in a choice of sizes in the new office building can be hired for events.

The Visitor Center is open daily from 10:00am until 6:00pm. At present, it is only possible to get to the Visitor Center by car. Berlin Brandenburg Airport can be accessed via the A113 motorway and the B96a main road and the way is signposted. Once you get to the airport, follow the signs for the Airport City. You can park free of charge on Car Park P6, which is directly opposite the Visitor Center on the Willy-Brandt-Platz. Admission to the Visitor Center is free of charge.

The Infotower gives visitors a spectacular view from a height of 32 metres across the site of Berlin Brandenburg Airport and the present Berlin-Schönefeld Airport. A visitor pavilion with information about the airport project rounds off the services here. The Infotower is open daily from 10:00am until 6:00pm. To get here, take the A113 motorway and the B96a main road. The way to the Infotower is signposted. Admission costs €2, concessions €1.

The airport tours take you across the ground of the new BER airport, over the apron, past the terminal and the German Air Traffic control tower. The tour “Experience BER” starts at the airportworld, the former visitor center of Berlin Brandenburg Airport, which is directly opposite the S-Bahn train station Flughafen Berlin-Schönefeld. The tours are available for individuals on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. Special times can be arranged for group tours. The airport tour costs €10 per person, concessions are €5. Prices for groups are available on request. Airport tours must be booked in advance.
