Kölner Karnevalsmuseum, Carnival culture museum in Ehrenfeld, Germany

The Cologne Carnival Museum spans 1,400 square meters and presents exhibits about carnival traditions through modern multimedia displays and historical artifacts.

The museum opened in 2005, incorporating collections previously stored by various carnival societies and items from the former small museum of the Cologne Carnival Festival Committee.

Visitors can examine traditional uniforms, carnival orders, colorful costumes, and multimedia presentations that showcase the Rhine region's carnival celebrations.

The museum features wheelchair accessibility with an elevator, adapted restrooms, and offers both public and private guided tours, including tours led by historical characters.

The largest carnival museum in German-speaking regions documents the formation of the Dreigestirn and exhibits the original protocol book from the Festival Committee of 1827.
