Dialogue in the Dark ("Dialog in the Dark" in American promotional materials) is an awareness raising exhibition and franchise, as well as a social business. In Dialogue in the Dark, blind guides lead visitors in small groups through different settings in absolute darkness. Through this visitors learn how to interact without sight by using their other senses, as well as experience what it is like to be blind.
Since its first opening in 1988 over six million visitors from more than 25 countries have experienced Dialogue in the Dark, which has provided over 6,000 blind people jobs.
The first permanent exhibition was established in Hamburg, Germany (Dialog im Dunkeln) in 2000.
In the meantime, the concept of "Dialogue in Silence" has been introduced, in which the visitor enters the world of silence with sound-proof headphones and is led by deaf staff through various exhibition rooms.
