Zeppelin Museum Friedrichshafen

The Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen on Lake Constance is a unique cultural and technical centre that presents the history and innovation of air navigation as well as South German art in a comprehensive and interactive way.

• Technology and art: The museum combines, under the dual framework of "Technology and Art", an extensive collection of over 1,500 original exhibits on airship navigation, including a walkable reconstruction of the airship LZ 129 "Hindenburg", with an important art collection of the city of Friedrichshafen, which includes masterpieces from the Middle Ages to the modern era.
• Interactive exhibitions: Visitors can participate in numerous experiment stations to experience basic concepts of aerodynamics and aeronautical engineering hands-on. The museum also offers workshops, tours, lectures and DIY actions designed for different target groups such as families, schools and kindergartens.
• Historical and cultural insights: In addition to the history of air transport, the development of the Zeppelin Group and its intertwining with historical events, such as the Nazi war economy and the reconstruction after 1945, are presented in detail. The "Schauhaus" in the Zeppelindorf offers an insight into the life of the workers during the founding period of the Zeppelin industry.

The Zeppelin Museum follows the pioneering spirit of Count Zeppelin and is dedicated to interdisciplinary, discursive, participatory and inclusive historical, present and future social processes. It inspires visitors to dare the seemingly impossible and actively shape the future.

The museum is committed to sustainability:

• Climate-neutral exhibitions: The Zeppelin Museum has set itself the goal of realizing climate-neutral exhibitions, such as the temporary exhibition "Into the deep. Mines of the future", which was funded under the Zero program of the Federal Cultural Foundation.
• Sustainability laboratory: As part of the exhibition "Into the deep: Mines of the future", a sustainability laboratory has been set up to inform the general public about sustainability in a tangible way.
• Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: The museum follows the principles of "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" and plans the next use of exhibition elements to save resources and reduce emissions.

The Zeppelin Museum is not only a place of historical and technical education, but also a pioneer in sustainability and interactive museum work, offering a diverse and vibrant experience that appeals to and inspires visitors of all ages.
