German Christmas Museum

As Käthe Wohlfahrt is based in Rothenburg ob der Tauber since 1977, they then started this Christmas Museum, in which it's an independent route away from their shop. Walking into the museum like walking into the secret chambers, many more than 100 years old Christmas elements demonstrated in the museum. From Christmas trees, ornaments, to cards, dolls, and candles, you'll learn the history of Christmas 🎄🎁 throughout the journey.

I enjoyed the Christmas museum inside the Kathe Wohlfahrt store. Descriptions of the exhibits are in English and German. It was interesting to see the way ornaments have changed and the different tree toppers, cards, santas, etc.

Very small museum. We were the only people there and I can understand why after seeing the display. The shop on the other hand, was crowded. I wouldn't recommend spending money to see the museum. Just save the money and buy something from the shop instead. No toilets for customers available in the museum or the shop.

I didn’t visit museum but the shop is most impressive one I have ever seen on the topic. Number of the toys and decorations is overwhelming. The shop itself is much more expansive than you would think initially, resembles a maze. You can move only in certain direction to get back to the exit. Essential experience visiting Rothenburg.

Amazing place!!! Outside was +33 degrees by Celsius, and in the one moment you step in the absolute Christmas feeling. Gorgeous, I don’t know such another place in Europe, in addition the town as it self is like small fairy tale town. Kids very absolutely happy! Would like to come back in winter time.

I didn’t want to go home when the moments I visited here. Here is gorgeous.🥰❤️🤩

What a stunning place! Kathe Kohlfahrt brings joy all year round here at the Christmas museum! Loved learned about the origins of my favorite holiday.

Really nice museum. My kids loved this and we also. This is without entry fees and you can buy stuffs also. Staff was really nice. No huge queues or waiting. Had really good experience of christmas in summer :)
