Mu­seum of Hamelin

While in Hameln, we recommend a visit to the Museum Hameln (Museum of Hamelin). The awe-inspiring museum building is situated in the pedestrian zone. Delve into the town’s history and get a vivid picture of the various aspects of life throughout the ages. Visitors can pull out drawers, open shutters, bowl balls and, of course, ask questions. The highlight of the museum is the mechanical Pied Piper theatre. Swiss artist Otto Steiner has let his imagination run free here, surprising visitors with a modern twist on the dramatic legend. The tour of the 1,200 m2 exhibition space is one of the town’s accessible attractions.
