Museum Nortorf, Technology museum in Rendsburg-Eckernförde, Germany.
Museum Nortorf is housed in a former factory building and displays a large collection of records, record players, and sound recording equipment. The spaces preserve the machinery and installations that once produced records on that site.
The building housed the TELDEC company from 1948 to 1989, a major producer of vinyl records. Millions of records for famous artists were manufactured here during that period.
The place shows how people listened to and collected music at home over decades, from early records to vinyl LPs. The equipment on display tells the story of a daily relationship with music that is completely different today.
Visiting is straightforward as the museum occupies a former industrial building that is easy to reach. Guided tours can be arranged in advance to learn more about the machinery and how it worked.
The original boiler house from the former factory still stands on site and can be visited. Here you can directly understand how the factory operated back then.
