International newspaper museum, Newspaper museum near marketplace in Aachen, Germany
The International Newspaper Museum contains over 200,000 newspaper specimens from five continents, displaying first editions, special editions, and final editions.
Founded in 1886 by Oskar Forckenbeck, the museum underwent major renovations in 2006 through the Euregionale 2008 aid program to expand its facilities.
The museum exhibits demonstrate the progression of print journalism worldwide and the influence of newspapers on public discourse throughout different time periods.
Located in central Aachen, the museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Sunday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM with full wheelchair accessibility.
During renovation work, workers discovered a medieval cellar in the courtyard, which now functions as an open-air restaurant in summer months.
