Niederrheinisches Museum Kevelaer e.V. — Attraction in Kevelaer

The exhibition is divided into a special exhibition and a permanent exhibition. At the time of my visit, the special exhibition was a film poster exhibition, with a large collection of posters of popular films from the 1950s to the 2000s, which showed that the museum had put a lot of effort into this project. The permanent exhibition is divided into two parts: an exhibition on children's culture, featuring toys and school classrooms, and an exhibition on the history and culture of the region. The exhibition on children's culture is impressive in its amount, which is not seen in any other museum. This alone is worth a visit. The local cultural history is also well presented, with a wealth of metalworking items such as coins, which have been a feature of the region since the Middle Ages, as well as recreations of various occupations and dwellings. In total, for a small town folklore museum, the exhibition is very good in terms of quality, and is not inferior to the larger museums in the city. There is also a café and bookshop at the entrance and many restaurants on the street outside the museum. The museum can be reached by train from Düsseldorf...
