Feuerle Puig House Private museum in Berlin, juxtaposing contemporary artists with Imperial Chinese furniture and ancie

The Feuerle Collection juxtaposes international contemporary artists with Imperial Chinese furniture and ancient Southeast Asian art. Located in a former Second World War telecommunications bunker that has been renovated by the British architect John Pawson, the museum encourages a conversation between different periods and cultures, offering an alternative perception of ancient art and creates a new perspective on the pieces, adopting a synesthetic approach. On display are stone, bronze and wood Khmer sculptures from the 7th - 13th century, Imperial Chinese lacquer and stone furniture; wood and stone Chinese Scholar furniture from the Han Dynasty to Qing Dynasty, from 200 BC to the 18th century. They are juxtaposed with works by contemporary artists, including Cristina Iglesias, Anish Kapoor, Zeng Fanzhi, James Lee Byars, Nobuyoshi Araki and Adam Fuss.

Discover The Tea Ceremony. Rooted in the ancient tradition of Chaozhou Gongfu Cha (潮州工夫茶), our tea ceremony transforms the act of brewing and tasting into a meditative experience.

Immerse yourself in a world where rare teas such as Gushu Pu’er, Phoenix Dancong, and Aged Taiwanese Oolong meet the beauty of Imperial Chinese furniture and contemporary art. This intimate ceremony unfolds in the inspiring atmosphere of our collection, offering a dialogue between tradition, aesthetics, and emotion.

“I cannot describe my museum; you have to feel it!” — Désiré Feuerle.

Feuerle Puig House invites each visitor to encounter art through their own senses, without being told what to think or feel. That is why there are no labels on display — instead, attendants quietly accompany the visitors, stepping in only when questions arise, so as not to disrupt the atmosphere.

Here, art is not explained, but felt — a museum experience that unfolds through silence, presence, and perception. Book via link in our bio!

The soul of an artwork, as described by Désiré Feuerle, is “an invisible presence that makes you respond without knowing why.” This understanding lies at the heart of Feuerle Puig House.

Rather than asking visitors to analyse or categorise what they see, the House invites them on a journey inward—one that begins with sensation, intuition, and feeling. Visitors are encouraged to listen closely to their own responses, to notice what resonates, unsettles, or quietly draws them in, often before words take shape.

Through carefully curated spaces and light, Feuerle Puig House creates the environment for this special encounter. It is an invitation to slow down, to trust one’s inner voice, and to allow the artwork to be seen and felt in the first place, before any other information. To feel a work is, ultimately, to open oneself to its many dimensions beyond what is immediately visible, it is an experience that reconnects us with our own emotional and perceptual awareness.

Through the Eyes of Our Visitors
Feuerle Puig House leads you from absolute darkness into a space where soft light reveals still, graceful forms — a quiet shift that transforms the senses and heightens awareness.

As one visitor beautifully expressed:
"The moment you shift from complete darkness and John Cage music into the dimly lit realm of meditating and dancing beings…”

Step into this world of quiet contemplation and transformation.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for World Cleanup Day 2026! 🌍✨

This year, Feuerle Puig House led cleanup efforts along both banks of the Landwehrkanal. With your energy and commitment, we took part in a global movement dedicated to caring for our cities, waterways, and shared environment.

After the cleanup, we gathered under the trees outside Feuerle Puig House for conversations and delicious homemade lasagna, followed by a tour of the Collection — a wonderful way to end the day together.

We are grateful to our neighbors, friends, and the wider cultural community for making the day not only impactful, but also inspiring.

Using Désiré Feuerle’s exquisite light curation as a form of descriptive language, we invite visitors to engage with art in a deeply personal and synesthetic way, allowing each art piece to resonate uniquely within them. The experience encourages a meditative exploration of the Collection, where the focus shifts from academic context to an intimate connection with one’s own emotions and perceptions. To preserve this immersive atmosphere, the use of mobile phones is not permitted, offering a rare opportunity to disconnect from the distractions of the modern world and fully concentrate on the present moment—a quiet rebellion against the fast-paced habits of our age.

For Désiré Feuerle, the contrast between Berlin and his collection carries a distinctive elegance. As he explains, “The real contrast is between Berlin and my collection. Most of the things I collect are very refined and elegant, whereas Berlin as a whole certainly comes across as somewhat rougher.” Within this tension lies a constructive energy: the pieces, set against such a backdrop, seem to become even more alive.

His curatorial vision builds on this principle. By combining ancient works — such as imperial Chinese furniture and early Khmer sculpture — with pieces by contemporary artists, Feuerle seeks to dissolve temporal boundaries. As he notes, “The historical objects, just like the new ones, exist in the now of our present. For me, as a viewer and collector, both are ‘contemporary’ in the sense of real, not past objects.”

Through this approach, his exhibitions reveal a simultaneity that allows artworks from different epochs to coexist and enter into dialogue in the present.
