Our archives

Due to current restructuring and reorganisation of our digitization processes, we will have to close our archives of photos, documents, and personal papers and companies until approximately 30 September 22. The use of the textile and graphic archives will be restricted. The other archives and the Marlene Dietrich Collection Berlin will remain open. Until 31 December 2022, the film archive will be closed for viewings. We will also be unable to prepare and provide viewing materials for external use during this time. Film distribution and sales services will remain in operation.

Use of the archive

Our archives are open and free for academic researchers, professional publicity staff and for those conducting private studies, as well as those preparing their own exhibitions. We are open to all parties and try to help you find the easiest and most effective access possible to our archives.

Our collection is distributed between several locations. We request that you register with us in advance so that we can reserve a viewing station or workstation in our reading room.

Prior to your visit, please be sure to review the options for viewing items from the collection as certain individual objects or archives may be restricted or completely unavailable at present for conservation or legal reasons.
