Beatles Museum Halle

The Beatles Museum is a museum in Halle that initially displayed exhibits from a previous traveling exhibition of the Liverpool music band The Beatles. Meanwhile, the exhibition has been expanded to about three times its original size and documents the band's history from its founding to its dissolution, as well as the solo careers of the band members.

The museum's founder, Rainer Moers, began collecting everything related to the Beatles starting in 1964. From 1975, the collection was displayed as a traveling exhibition in about 25 cities in Germany and abroad. In the late 1970s, there were also talks with the GDR to show the exhibition in Berlin, which ultimately led to the exhibition being displayed in 1982 in Hungary, at the Budapest Nep-Station. More than 20,000 visitors attended, many of them from the GDR. From 1989, it was in Cologne in a space of nearly 60 m². On July 31, 1999, the Beatles Museum in Cologne closed, to reopen six months later in Halle. The museum founders: Rainer Moers and Matthias Bühring, who passed away in October 2000.
