Forum Willy Brandt Berlin

Willy Brandt (1913–1992) is one of the most outstanding statesmen of the 20th century. His name stands for democracy and freedom, understanding and peace, justice, solidarity, and social responsibility. The Forum Willy Brandt Berlin shows how the working-class boy and anti-Fascist became Mayor of Berlin, then Federal Chancellor, Nobel Peace Prize laureate and a highly-respected international statesman. As a place for historical education and political information, the Forum also offers a diverse programme with lectures, book presentations and other educational offers. Since 2019 the Forum Willy Brandt Berlin has been at its new interim location in Behrenstraße. The Forum is sponsored by the Federal Chancellor Willy Brandt Foundation, which was established by the German Bundestag in 1994 to commemorate the life and political work of the social democratic politician, statesman and Nobel Peace Prize laureate.
