German angel museum, Angel museum in Engelskirchen, Germany.
The German Angel Museum exhibits over 3,000 angel figures from the 17th to 20th centuries within a 340-square-meter space in the Old Locksmith building.
The collection started in 1985 when Johann Fischer gathered angels worldwide, reaching 12,642 pieces by 2002 and earning a Guinness World Record recognition.
