Layout

The historical museum features utilitarian objects from the fields of medicine, film, sports, aviation, construction and industry. The focus is less on individual objects, but their arrangement and compilation. The reduction of light and the connection of objects with different rooms aim to create a large, walk-through installation. The exhibits are intentionally devoid of descriptions and instead focuses on the interaction of form and function of the items. Visitors are encouraged to handle the objects and speculate on their use.

The museum also features the Lichtbildpanoptikum, an integrated photo gallery featuring works by Vlad Korneev.
