Celts for Kids – A journey into the Iron Age

30 November 2023 – 1st September 2024

Through the comic heroes Asterix and Obelix, the Celts are known as comical ruffians. But what were people really up to in the Iron Age? How did they live here in Breisgau? An interactive discovery tour shows that the Celts were not only courageous heroes, but also pioneers in arts and crafts. They travelled far and wide and traded. Unique finds, hands-on stations and illustrations invite children and young people on an exciting journey through time.

listening differently

15 March to 8 September 2024

Worlds of sound. They are as diverse as our perception. You can hear them, see them or feel them. Participative and integrative, the exhibition opens up to all visitors - young and old, with handicap and without - different, active approaches to artworks dedicated to this theme. The electronic works of Peter Vogel, for example, react sometimes visually, sometimes acoustically to the actions of the audience. Others stimulate the imagination and create sounds in our heads.

The project is supported by the Innovation Fund Art and the Renate and Waltraut Sick foundation.

From Egg to Chick

17 February to 7 April 2024

They are scurrying through the museum again and capturing hearts: yellow, brown, black, spotted and striped chicks. They are not only cute, they are also ambassadors for respectful treatment of animals. After more than 30 years, many fans of the family exhibition have known for a long time that if you are quiet as a mouse and prick up your ears at the show hatchery, you may already hear a soft beeping in the egg or the cracking of the shell. If you are very lucky, you will experience the magic moment when a chick hatches. Perhaps a Sundheimer or an Altsteirer? These and other regional and endangered chicken breeds are back.
