Hameln Museum, Cultural museum in Hamelin, Germany
The Museum Hameln occupies two Renaissance buildings in Hamelin's old town: the Leisthaus and the adjacent Stiftsherrenhaus, connected through a transitional space.
Friedrich Wilhelm Haspelmath initiated the museum's collection in the Haspelmathturm during the 1790s, leading to its official establishment in 1912 through the Wallbaum siblings' donation.
The museum's exhibition space spans 1,200 square meters, featuring the Hameln Missal from 1480 and angel candelabras crafted in the Nuremberg Vischer workshop.
Museum Hameln welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 11 AM and 6 PM, with guided tours available every Wednesday and the first Sunday monthly.
The mechanical Pied Piper theatre within the museum employs figurines, light effects, and sound to narrate the legendary tale of Hamelin's rat catcher.
