Karl May Museum Radebeul, Literary heritage museum in Radebeul, Germany.
The Karl May Museum occupies Villa Shatterhand and Villa Bärenfett, displaying extensive collections about Native American culture and the author's literary works.
The museum opened in 1928 at Karl May's former residence, with Native American members of the Sarrasani circus performing traditional songs during the inauguration.
Between 1956 and 1984, East German authorities renamed it 'Indianer Museum' and modified exhibitions to highlight Native American oppression by the United States.
The museum operates from Tuesday to Sunday between 10:00 and 18:00, offering guided tours through exhibits of manuscripts, personal items, and Native American artifacts.
The museum features a log cabin called Villa Bärenfett, which houses European collections related to North American indigenous populations.
