Mineralien-Museum Kupferdreh
Mineralien-Museum Kupferdreh, Mineral museum in Kupferdreh district, Essen, Germany
The Mineralien-Museum Kupferdreh displays comprehensive collections of minerals, meteorites, crystals, rocks, and fossils in a former school building in Essen.
The museum building, established in 1984 as part of the Ruhr Museum Foundation, represents architectural heritage within North Rhine-Westphalia through its preserved structure.
The museum integrates geological education with hands-on experiences through experimental rooms where visitors interact directly with mineral specimens and create sounds using rocks.
Located near Lake Baldeney's Geological Hiking Trail, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM with free admission for all visitors.
The exhibition includes a dedicated Crystal Chamber and features specialized sections about meteorites under the theme Stuff of the Stars - Dust of the Galaxies.
