    (Translated by Google) Very nice, the Nibelungenausstellung. Loving, creative, impressive and impressive. Beautifully fitted into the rooms of the old city wall, a time travel equipped with modern technology into the past. Makes you want more, I'll come back to Worms!

    This is such a unique little museum that goes over the history of Worms Germany. I did have to use google translate for the whole visit but I didn’t mind as it was still getting me the information of the area.

    A small museum charting the history of Worms from 1020 through to present day. There are two floors of exhibition - the ground floor deals with the Worms from the Neolithic time to just before Roman times. The first floor deals with the Roman times onwards. The exhibitions are all in German, but this is easily overcome with Google Translate - be aware that translation is literal so you get the full force of the language which is interesting. The price for a family is good at 7 Euros which is good value as you can expect to be here for a couple of hours. The doors are very thick here so be prepared for a workout 💪 but it is nothing to worry about. If you go into the courtyard beware the floor is slippy in the wet. Overall a nice place to visit.

    (Translated by Google) Yes it is very nice and informative in Worms. Unfortunately, the city museum was closed for renovation. Too bad. Otherwise very nice everything, the cathedral, the city wall and the museum. You should have seen it. Is easy to reach by train. (Original) Ja es ist sehr schön und informativ in Worms. Leider hatte das Stadtmuseum wegen Renovierung geschlossen. Schade. Sonst sehr schön alles, der Dom, die Stadtmauer und das Museum. Muss man gesehen haben. Ist gut mit dem Zug zu erreichen.

    (Translated by Google) The Nibelung Museum in Worms is dedicated to the Nibelung legend. The museum, opened in 2001, integrates a section of the historic Worms city wall and two towers from the 12th century. The audiovisual permanent exhibition illuminates the mythical character of the Nibelung legend. In addition, cultural events as well as lectures and conferences take place on the premises. (From Wikipedia) (Original) Das Nibelungenmuseum Worms ist der Nibelungensage gewidmet. Das 2001 eröffnete Museum integriert einen Abschnitt der historischen Wormser Stadtmauer sowie zwei Türme aus dem 12. Jahrhundert. Die audiovisuelle Dauerausstellung beleuchtet den mythischen Charakter der Nibelungensage. Daneben finden in den Räumlichkeiten kulturelle Veranstaltungen sowie Vorträge und Fachtagungen statt.

    Disappointing. I thought there was more about the history of worms but this part was closed. Only an exhibition about freedom of thought and speech. Costly.

    Stationed in Worms from 1975-1977 on Flax Kesern: Very beautiful city with a eye catching history. Breath taking cathedrals and friendly people.

    The church building Has been used as an exhibition/museum. This year was special because the celebrate 1000 years of Worms dom, and in addition if you go upstairs besides to the historical development of the city of Worms, you will be meeting some original manuscripts by Martin Luther. I believe they are there as part of celebrating the 500th anniversary of reformation.

    I didn't want to get out, it's a museum and kne would think old but it's so modern and quite informative and the ladies at the front desk are so organised and friendly

  • 4/5 Daniela G. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The exhibition is very interesting, a lot is lovingly illustrated by small figures, for example. However, the texts or the exhibits are partly duplicated. I found that strange. The staff there are very helpful, even with questions. The cloister is beautiful, a short stay here afterwards is worthwhile. (Original) Die Ausstellung ist sehr interessant, vieles wird zB liebevoll durch kleine Figuren verdeutlicht. Allerdings doppeln sich teilweise die Texte oder auch die Ausstellungsstücke. Das fand ich merkwürdig. Die Mitarbeiter dort sind sehr hilfsbereit, auch bei Fragen. Der Kreuzgang ist wunderschön, ein kurzer Aufenthalt im Anschluss hier lohnt sich.

  • 3/5 Gianluca I. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Summer 2021. The museum is occupied by an exhibition which lasts until December. It's called "I have a dream". It starts from Luther's opposition to the request to retract his writings (Diet of Worms of 1521) and documents the history of dissent and the struggles for the rights to freedom of worship and expression. Many writings, many documents but few objects (paintings, books, artifacts). Nice some audiovisual presentations, but overall too much material to read. (Original) Estate 2021. Il museo è occupato da una mostra che dura fino a dicembre. Si intitola "I have a dream". Parte dall'opposizione di Lutero alla richiesta di ritrattare i suoi scritti (dieta di Worms del 1521) e documenta la storia del dissenso e le lotte per il diritti alla libertà di culto e d'espressione. Molti scritti, molti documenti ma pochi oggetti (quadri, libri, manufatti). Belle alcune presentazioni audiovisive, ma nel complesso troppo materiale da leggere.
