Traveler reviews
Devina Lyngm
★★★★★6 months agoVisited on a Saturday mid-afternoon, and it was quite crowded, but still very enjoyable. The museum is well laid out and easy to explore even with many visitors around. Most of the explanations are in German, which might be challenging for non-German speakers. However, since I’m more of a visual person and don’t read every description in detail, I still had a great time. The exhibits themselves are engaging and visually interesting. At €3.50, the ticket price is very reasonable and definitely worth it for the experience.
