About the children's museum (kek - Kinder erleben Kunst und Kultur):
A children's museum is fundamentally different from a traditional museum. The selected objects and collections serve as a means and tool to encourage children and young people to explore. The exhibitions invite them to experiment with all their senses. In stations and workshops, manual, aesthetic and intellectual skills can be tested and developed. Children's museums are family-friendly, extracurricular places of learning and promote intergenerational communication.
