Todavía sin un emplazamiento definitivo, esta colección es literalmente única. El Museo de las Letras (Buchstabenmuseum) está dedicado a preservar y documentar los diferentes tipos de letra. Un museo que no está sólo enfocado a los diseñadores gráficos o entusiastas de la tipografía, sino que va más allá. Estos caracteres y logos rescatados de carteles y neones son iconos de su tiempo, objetos de arte con un alto valor histórico y emocional.
Cada pieza expuesta cuenta con documentación histórica sobre su origen. Aunque en la actualidad son todas de Berlín y su entorno, en un futuro se esperan sumar letras de todas las partes del mundo. La visita a la sede temporal cuesta 2,50 € y está abierta de jueves a sábados.

Still without a permanent home, this collection is literally unique. The Museum of Letters (Buchstabenmuseum) is devoted to preserving and documenting letterforms. This museum is not just for graphic design nerds and typography enthusiasts. Above all else, these «rescued» characters and logos are artifacts of their times and art objects with historical and emotional value.
Each exhibit has a documented history of its origin. While these objects are currently from around Berlin, in the future letters will arrive from all over the world. The visit to the temporary exhibition space is open Thursday to Saturday from 1–3pm. Entry 2,50 €.
