Museums - Friedrichshafen

The Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen is a visit for any aviation fascinated and worth caring for lovers of Maibach. It is very centrally located at the port in Friedrichshafen. Here you can see and feel how it was and is in the passenger cabin of an old Zeppelin. The museum visit should not be missed in a family trip. Here you will be very interesting to tell the story of the Zeppeline and the then aviation. In the entrance area there is an old Maibach. Very nice to go after the museum at the nearby view tower.

....The weather in our Lake Constance was really typical for November, we decided to visit the Zeppelin Museum. Say! The address flott entered navigation and the journey started... It is located at the former port station of Friedrichshafen and if the weather allows you to have the indescribable view of the Alpine panorama. We had the indescribable bad luck and unfortunately did not see it. Okay, the weather didn't do anything. The 8,00€ entrance for an adult and the 2€ for the locker are in retrospect and considering what I could see is absolutely justified.... The original reconstruction of a 33 meter long part of the LZ 129 Hindenburg impresses me indescribably. It is unbelievable what was created here at the time and how huge it is when you stood in. Incredibly many exhibits from the world's largest collection on Zeppelin's history and technology show how the basic insights about lightweight construction and aerodynamics have changed mobility. ... Interesting that you can see from the most unprecedented floor of the museum, the reconstruction of the Hindenburg from below. On the middle floor, you can enter the replica, see the bedrooms and the toilets, the guest room with the airbrush on the wall... and from the top floor, you can see the smoking room and how the scaffolding of the Zeppelin was built... Everything is illustrated and made understandable. Interesting like the dishes, tickets and especially the 3D film, this museum visits round. Everywhere, ladies sat in the museum, who were very friendly and not very excited, explained everything.... It is also important to know that the museum is accessible to disabled people. The different floors of the museum can be equipped with an elevator.... The visitors WC ́s are, as before, really all in the museums on Lake Constance, very clean and well maintained.... Prices vary according to who visits the museum. There are various conditions for adults, pensioners, children of 6 16 years old, hard-toothed, pupils, students and unemployed.... There are family cards, prices for school groups and groups... Guided tours are also offered and cost naturally as everywhere, extra.... In the museum you can photograph without lightning and are also immediately pointed out when entering it. You can't have a backpack on your back. All that could interfere, screens, thick jackets and and, you can save for 1 2 € in lockers.... Hundi also doesn't have to be involved with or somewhere (zwinker)... Those who haven't had enough of Zeppelin and his history after the visit can buy some memories in the museum shop in the entrance hall and a souvenir house... I took some pictures and I took them for you. Have you ever seen the virtual journey through Hindenburg... Do you fall and have you become curious? Then, if your time allows, make yourself on the way to this great museum...

Large very interesting museum, suitable for the whole family. The Zeppelin is impressive!

Comprehensive collection of the history and technology of Zeppelin Airship on a total of 2,300 square meters. As a fan of the topic you can spend a lot of time here to look at the numerous exhibits and to study the relevant information. I had neither the time nor the interest for a really intense museum visit, but I did not want to miss a short visit to this unique exhibition and spent about 2 hours here. The technical collection with the reconstruction of the lounges and sleeping cabins of the Hindenburg or the engine pod of Count Zeppelin are also impressive for lay people. Adult admission costs 8€. The exhibits are well written, the explanations were sufficient for me. If you want more information, you can rent an audio guide for 2.50 Euro. Those who stay longer in Friedrichshafen and plan further museum visits should think about a reduced combination ticket with the Dornier Museum or the School Museum (7 days valid). Opening hours are 9-17 a.m. daily or 10-17 a.m. in the months of November to April.

The Zeppelin Museum is internationally renowned and if not the most famous museum on Lake Constance. The world's largest collection on the history of aerial shipping will be exhibited here. A wow experience produces the reconstruction of the LZ 129 Hindenburg over 30 m long and true to the original.
