Traveler reviews

  • Irina Skrypnik

    ★★★★★11 months ago

    An interesting museum, the audio guide is included in the ticket price (€7.5) and is available in Russian. The museum tells the history of the house itself, the story of Dürer and his family, features copies of his works, the preserved kitchen, and reconstructed rooms. I spent an hour and a half there as if in one breath. Highly recommended! If you come at the opening, there are few people and it’s very comfortable.

    I enjoyed reading more about Durer. Displays in English and German were pretty informative. Once inside, the house is like any old house and not as interesting as the displays. Cost about €7.5 to visit.
