Great experience! Would recommend planning for half a day, we were there for 3 and a half hours and it still didn't feel like enough. Excellent musical instrument collection, and my husband loved the transport selection!

It is a really big, funny, interactive museum. It is really good for children to come as well. They have different areas to introduce different materials and knowledges. As an adult still it was so fun for me too😂🥰

We only had about 2 hours to spend here, which wasn't enough to see everything. You would need at least an afternoon for that. Many interactive displays with both German and English explanations, in a nice building. Lockers with transparent doors are available in the entrance. They required a 1€ or 2€ coin, which we didn't have, but we were able to borrow a coin from the front desk.
