Historisches Spielzeugmuseum Freinsheim

Historisches Spielzeugmuseum Freinsheim, Toy museum in Freinsheim, Germany.

The Historisches Spielzeugmuseum Freinsheim occupies Haus an der Bach, a medieval building renovated as a listed monument, opposite the Vier-Röhren-Brunnen fountain. Its three floors provide 300 m² for exhibitions and a museum café. The displays hold around 1,000 objects produced before 1932, mostly in original condition, centred on the Bing Werke Nürnberg toy factory.

The museum opened on 2 April 2011, based on Uwe Groll's private collection, which began with Bing Werke Nürnberg gauge 0 trains and accessories. Over the years Groll became absorbed in the company's history and the breadth of its output, and the collection expanded. Marion Groll directs the museum, which occupies the medieval Haus an der Bach.

The museum is run by Marion Groll, while the collection itself was assembled by Uwe Groll, who began with Bing gauge 0 trains and their accessories. Over the years his interest widened to the whole Bing Werke Nürnberg product range, and the private museum opened on 2 April 2011. Visitors can spot items such as Bingola games, children's gramophones and kinematographs.

The museum occupies three floors of the Haus an der Bach, with 300 m² of exhibition space plus a museum café. It stands opposite the Vier-Röhren-Brunnen, the former calibration well where vintners measured their barrels. The building was renovated in keeping with monument protection, so expect historic fabric rather than a modern interior.

The museum is nicknamed the Bing Museum after the Nuremberg firm Bing Werke, whose products dominate the collection. It stands opposite the Vier-Röhren-Brunnen, a former calibration fountain where vintners measured their barrels. The building, called Haus an der Bach, has three floors and 300 square metres of exhibition space plus a museum café.
