Struwwelpeter Museum
Struwwelpeter, Paulinchen or Hans-Guck-in-die-Luft - the Frankfurt physician Dr. Heinrich Hoffmann (1809-1894) created a classic of children's literature with his picture book "Der Struwwelpeter".
In the reopened Struwwelpeter Museum in the heart of the new Old Town, drawings, books and documents are presented that show Heinrich Hoffmann as a loving family man, doctor and poet. Rare editions of Struwwelpeter, many translations, witty parodies, kitsch and art tell of the picture book's long-lasting success.
With lots of fun and games, children can rediscover the stories in the museum and bring them to life. The children's level in the exhibition design invites visitors to enjoy an interactive museum experience with story islands and a play trail. Visitors of all ages can roll the dice around the world with "Mr. Fix von Bickenbach" in 77 days or have their photo taken with the large figures from the book. Want to be Struwwelpeter? In the theater room, everyone can dress up and act out the Struwwelpeter stories on a real stage.
Of course, adult visitors can also try out how the Struwwelpeter look suits them. A creative table is available for further activities. It is a special treat to celebrate a children's birthday party "at Struwwelpeter's". Kindergartens, school classes etc. can visit the museum as part of a hands-on tour.
