Review:
The Museum fur Kommunikation, which was opened in 1958 as a postal museum, is the oldest exhibit along the Museumsufer, or Museum Riverbank. Now located in a sleek, modern glass building, the Museum fur Kommunikation presents more than just postal technology. Rather, it focuses on how communication has changed through the ages, with artifacts such as telegraphs, telephones, and computers. A news exhibit tells the story of how writing evolved from the ancient Mesopotamian civilization to present-day news in its current form. The museum also has an area devoted to new media, which places communication in its cultural and societal contexts.
