Some sections of our exhibition Munich and National Socialism address topics such as war and violence and contain images that may be disturbing. We offer a free media guide specially designed for young people from the age of fourteen that introduces them to the topic of National Socialism in an age-appropriate manner. There is also a family media guide designed for parents to visit together with children over the age of ten. This guide omits the sections of the exhibition that contain images of violence. You can also book tours and other educational programs for groups of children and young people.
We offer regular tours and seminars Tuesdays to Sundays between 10 am and 7 pm. School classes can book tours on weekdays from 8.30 am onwards.
Please give us at least 14 days’ notice. This will give us time to organize your group tour. If you request a tour at shorter notice, we will do our best to facilitate it.
You don’t need to do any special preparation for your class to participate in our educational program. If you let us know when you book your visit whether your class has any special needs, our guides can adapt the content and language to fit your group.
