★★★★★a year agoEven if you don't know anything about Struwwelpeter, you will enjoy a visit to this museum. Fortunately, my wife and I were familiar. Fun for all ages. A very interesting history is well displayed. The section explaining all the 'international' versions is especially noteworthy.
Stefanie Anne Hörler
★★★★★a year agoAn absolut must! So much more than just an exhibition about a drawn character. The Author led an interesting life and did so much more for the world, than just entertain with comics. The museum is cleverly done and it is for adults and kids to enjoy. Free WiFi and an audioguide (App to download) where you can choose between a quick and a long tour. Staff is great (let us Store our Big backpacks, while we were there) and a nice shop too.
