The Museum

The museum was officially opened in september 2005.

It shows the interesting development of technology that strongly influences our life.

In contrast to similar museums that normally only exhibit the history of technology without showing their functionality, almost all devices in the technikum29 are operative and are demonstrated during the guided tours. So you get a totally different picture of that time.

The museum is located in Germany, close to Frankfurt/Main (more precisely: 65779 Kelkheim). It is privately owned and run and has currently about 250 square meters of exhibition floor space. It is open for interested visitors in a biweekly fashion on Sundays.
You can approach us by post@technikum29.de.

Now some pictures that show the exhibits we got at least:

What's new

(last update: july 2008)

Even small devices are very impressive: The picture on the left shows a dictating machine (year of manufacture 1952) which saves the sound on wires. See our page Sound recording and reproducing technology.

 

The virtual tour only shows some of the exhibits. Let's start a trip to the technical past – note there is no future without the past, therefore museums are an important part of the human cultural history.
