Yes, the info center is free, there was about a 30 minute queue time for us. This is due to security checks , similar to airport, bags scanned etc.... the exhibition initially sets the tone as to the timeline of events leading to the holocaust, then switches to personal testament, fragments of letters. The two combined make for a very special free experience that is very moving. Enjoy the reflection

In the first row this is not a museum, it's only monument of granite gray blocks near by Brandenburg tor. If you like to know more about this, you should visit a museum which is on the left side of monument, below the road. Pls, check only what is an appropriate ege to enter in this museum. I did not visit it because there was a long queue.

It is a good question. I definitely agree that the audio guide would not be appropriate. Personally, I found this museum to be very moving, but I don’t recall there to be many graphic pictures of dead bodies etc. I would focus less on the enormity of the tragedy and instead look at the individual stories of those who perished. There is one room which details letters sent by those who later died and that would be something a 12 year old would be able to comprehend. To conclude, I would only take a mature 12 year old child here.
