Volcano Museum, Daun, Volcanological museum in Daun, Germany.

The Volcano Museum occupies the old district administrative office (Landratsamt) in Daun and forms part of the Volcanic Eifel Nature and Geopark. Its exhibition rooms hold interactive computer models, information boards, photographs and rock exhibits from the Volcanic Eifel alongside material on active volcanoes in Europe and Asia. A large overview map at the entrance explains plate tectonics, and in the "Eifel Volcanism" room visitors can trigger an eruption on a model of a cinder cone.

This institution was established in a former district administrative building and documents the volcanic past of the Eifel region. The geological story it tells extends back thousands of years to when volcanic activity created the landscape visitors see today.

The museum takes its place among several volcano museums across the Eifel, alongside the Maar Museum in Manderscheid and the Volcano House in Strohn. Its exhibits tie the building to the wider Volcanic Eifel Nature and Geopark and to the geopaths at Hillesheim, Manderscheid and Gerolstein, which it was created to complement.

The museum is open from Tuesday through Sunday and offers wheelchair accessibility throughout the building. The exhibition spaces are arranged to allow visitors to move easily between different sections.

The basement houses training facilities with computer simulations that show how continents moved across different geological periods in Earth's history. This interactive experience helps visitors grasp the deeper forces that created the volcanic landscape around them.
