German Allotment Museum, Allotment gardening museum in Leipzig, Germany.

The museum occupies a historical clubhouse building from 1896, featuring exhibitions on garden culture through documents, photographs, medals, and historical gardening tools.

The museum opened in 1996 at the site of the first Schreber association, established in 1864 by physician Moritz Schreber to promote community gardening.

The permanent exhibition traces German allotment gardens from their 1814 origins in Kappeln through the Nature Cure Movement and workers' gardens to modern practices.

Visitors can access the museum Tuesday through Thursday from 10:00 to 16:00, with additional weekend hours during summer months from June to August.

The outdoor area includes one of Germany's oldest garden houses from 1880, four historical Saxon garden houses, and a representation of 1980s East German gardens.
