Kinder-Akademie Fulda, Children's museum in Fulda, Germany.
Kinder-Akademie Fulda is a children's museum occupying 2,000 square meters of exhibition space across multiple levels. The areas cover science, technology, art, and cultural subjects with hands-on displays that encourage direct exploration and experimentation.
The museum opened in 1991 as Germany's first independent children's museum of this kind. The founders drew inspiration from successful models abroad to create a new approach to learning for young visitors.
The name reflects how the place views young people as active learners who experiment and discover for themselves. The rooms are designed so children can touch, try things out, and learn through play at different stations throughout.
Plan your visit in advance, as reservations are recommended or sometimes required, particularly for certain stations and exhibits. The building is easy to navigate and works well for families with children of different ages.
A standout feature is a walkable heart model that visitors can move through, learning about the heart's inner structures from inside. This hands-on experience lets children grasp biological concepts in a direct and memorable way.
