    Good experience! Each area is arranged in such a way that it tell some story to visitors. There are fixed exhibition and temporary ones. Temporary one would cost some extra. You need to keep bags below area and locker facility available for 1€.

    (Translated by Google) Exhibition great, staff consistently unfriendly to our children. Children should be educated to be museum-goers, but if one is crazy for every little thing (and the children behaved decently) it is no fun (Original) Ausstellung super, Personal durchweg unfreundlich zu unseren Kindern. Da soll man Kindern zu Museumsgängern erziehen aber wenn man für jede Kleinigkeit abgefahren wird (und die Kinder haben sich anständig benommen) macht es keinen Spaß

    (Translated by Google) Today we went to the Aztec exhibition on the penultimate but super hot weekend. We had already visited the exhibition in Völklingen and Speyer before. Stuttgart was so acclaimed in the media that I expected more of what was actually on offer. In addition, when I went to the toilet, I was informed that I had to lock my water bottle (half a liter, half full) in the cloakroom. Grumbling, I complied with the instruction (over 60, risk of infact), but pointed out that I need medication and if I fall over in the exhibition, it will be on your account. What should I discover inside? Visitors with water bottles ... So if you are not necessarily an Aztec freak, you can skip the exhibition. The only thing that impressed me was the presentation of the calendar and Speyer was worlds better, air-conditioned and the audio guides free of charge. (Original) Wir waren heute am vorletzten, aber superheißen Wochenende in der Aztekenausstellung. Wir hatten schon zuvor die Ausstellung in Völklingen und Speyer besucht. Stuttgart war in den Medien derart hochgejubelt worden, dass ich mir mehr erwartet habe, was tatsächlich geboten wurde. Außerdem wurde ich beim Gang zur Toilette darauf hingewiesen, dass ich meine Wasserflasche (halber Liter, halb voll) in der Garderobe einzuschließen hätte. Murrend kam ich der Weisung nach (ü60, infaktgefährdet), wies aber darauf hin, dass ich Medikamente brauche und wenn ich in der Ausstellung umfalle, das auf ihre Rechnung geht. Was müsste ich drinnen entdecken? Besucher mit Wasserflasche... Also wenn man nicht unbedingt Aztekenfreak ist, kann man sich die Ausstellung sparen. Imponiert hat mir nur die Präsentation des Kalenders und Speyer war um Welten besser, klimatisiert und die Audioguides kostenlos.

    Beautiful set up, located at the centre of the infamous Ring road, the museum comprises the gallery, administrative offices, departmental offices, library, kitchen, and various symbolic monuments. The Museum Gallery is the pride of this establishment, as it is well organized. The Gallery is a circular two storey building, that has majorly the Benin art displayed on the ground floor, Royal Court photography on the first floor, and unity in diversity artifacts on the second floor

    It was nice but the attendants are not professional and there was no tour guide during my visit. It was a weekend so they have no excuses. It was exceptional for me because I got to see a dance group rehearsing for a performance which was not part of the museum package. The trip to the museum is worth it but you may have to do a lot of reading so going in an organized group is not advised and pictures / videos are not allowed. I will like to encourage them to include some sound effects and other effects to make it lively. Have fun!

    I visited the place several times. The employees were so hostile to us. I have three kids. They weren't that loud but they still gave us dirty looks. During the visit, i only had one thing on my mind. I've gotta get out of here before they shoot us....

    Today. They had an Aztec exilhibition. 12€ per person. It was well set out and very informative. While it is a small museum, the display was well organised. It was a pity it was not pram or wheelchair friendly. However the people there were very helpful.

    (Translated by Google) The exhibition is wonderful and designed with great attention to detail. It's a shame that the Linden Museum is not around the corner. I would like to be there more often. (Original) Die Ausstellung ist wundervoll und mit viel Liebe zum Detail gestaltet. Schade das, daß Linden Museum nicht um die Ecke liegt. Ich würde gern öfters dort sein.

    (Translated by Google) The Aztec exhibition is really very nice and informative. It is a pity that there is no combined entry for all exhibition formats, but that you may have to purchase several tickets. One downer is of course the mask requirement, for me as a varifocal wearer after several hours of uninterrupted wear it was really uncomfortable. Still thumbs up (Original) Die Atztekenausstellung ist wirklich sehr schön und informativ. Schade ist, das es keinen gekoppelten Eintritt für alle Ausstellungsformat gibt, sondern ggfs. mehrere Eintrittskarten erwerben muss. Ein Wermutstropfen ist natürlich die Maskenpflicht, für mich als Gleitsichtbrillenträger nach mehrstündigem ununterbrochenem Tragen wars dann echt unangenehm. Trotzdem Daumen hoch.👍

    (Translated by Google) This ethnological museum provides information about the culture of Central and Eastern Asia as well as Africa. There is currently a special exhibition on the Aztecs. The exhibitions are interestingly designed and clearly labeled. I was amazed that we were even granted free admission until 12 o'clock for the permanent exhibition. To my mind, this museum is really worth seeing! (Original) Dieses ethnologische Museum gibt Auskunft über die Kultur Zentral- und Ost-Asiens sowie Afrika. Momentan ist eine Sonderausstellung über die Azteken zu sehen. Die Ausstellungen sind interessant gestaltet und verständlich beschriftet. Ich war verwundert darüber, dass uns für die ständige Ausstellung, bis 12 Uhr sogar freier Eintritt gewährt wurde. Für mein Empfinden ist dieses Museum wirklich sehenswert!

    Located at the City centre, The Museum is one of the best in Nigeria, showcasing the rich history of the Benin people. The tour guide was very detailed, altogether it was a wonderful experience. We aren't allowed to take photos in the museum.

    The Benin National Museum is located at King’s Square in the center of the Ring Road, making it quite a traffic hazard to try to walk to the museum entrance.The National Museum Benin City was opened in 1973. Currently, they are working to upgrade the building and redo the exhibits. As part of this effort NMAfA is planning to send Alonge exhibit components to the museum.NATIONAL Museum of Benin City started from the Oba of Benin Palace in 1940’s but the edifice we see today was officially opened to the public on August 10, 1973. The Museum contains priceless objects – of antiquities from Benin Kingdom and other parts of the country. The first known Benin Museum started in the Oba’s Palace. Benin Traditional art was becoming famous and to preserve it, the Oba decided to assemble the artifacts under the custodian of Chief Jacob Eghareba within the palace in the Royal House- of Iwebo.As time went on, people developed more interest in these treasures. There was pressure mounted for these objects to be made public. This collection was relocated to one room in the old tax office Ring Road in Benin. This was later moved to the Benin Divisional Council because of space and through the efforts of one Mr. K.C Murray-a surveyor of antiquities and art teacherIn. 1960, the Federal Department now National Commission for Museums and Monuments took over the custodian of the artifacts. The National Commission for museums and monuments was established under Decree 77 of 1979. Since then, Museum has been growing. The edifices that house the artifacts today, was built during Samuel Ogbemudia regime as the two derma Military Government of Bendel State. This house with the exhibits therein was officially open to the general public in August 1973 with the ground and first floor galleries. While the second or unit gallery - was opened to the public in August 1996 through the efforts of Dr. O.J Eboreime as the Curator then. Truly ancient, historical, beautiful, easily accessible & a must for all visitors, especially first time visitors. The park tells the ancient story of the ancient city of Benin. The Chief Custodian of the Culture and Tradition of the Binis.. HRM Ómó N'Óba N'Èdo Uku Akpólókpóló Óba Éwuare II , The God-King 👑 #benincity . Seeing some cultural artifacts and historical pieces a a must here! . The views around the museum interior are lovely. Seeing art and craft,hundreds and even a thousand years old was a humbling experience. do not leave benin without visiting. the place could use some face-lift but all in all,worth it. is a museum maintained by a state. In many countries it denotes a museum run by the central government, and often is restricted to a few museums, mostly in the capital, while other museums are run by regional or local government, or foundations. In other countries a much larger number of museums are run by the central government, some quite small. Some national museums use the term in their name, but others do not; some museums just adopt the term as a matter of branding.So come one come all ,to the great Benin kingdom to experience the treat.

    Nice museum for ethnology. They had a very nice exhibition about Asian culture when I went there. They showed replicas of an oriental market, Japanese traditional houses and more. You feel very close to the history when not everything is behind glass.

    It's a cultural museum concentrating on Tamil culture and traditions. Audio guides were provided. But having a translator is recommended if you don't read German. Google translate would work. Must visit. Fee was 12€ per person.

    It is a nice, hardly visited museum with a few interesting pieces, but not very huge. Also, if you don't speak German you can't really absorb the information of the pieces. Thus, don't forget the (limited but that's the best you can get) audio set. Would give a slight recommendation.

    What a snooze fest other than trying to figure out the jacked up layout; it’s not set up well at all. Maybe it’s just not my forte but I didn’t like it at all and found it was a waste of euro. I wish I could go back and not pay for not only the ‘special’ exhibit but also the regular one. They must know their exhibits aren’t that good because they weren’t as attentively monitoring guests as with the other museums I visited. As a matter of fact they even said that some of their stuff is recreations again another reason the others were better. It takes away the history part of it. Take the mock-up they made below to show the only four jewels they had.

    This museum provides you information on the Benin the Kingdom and the traditions and belief system of the benin people. It features different galleries and exibitions. The first exibition is the Oba Akenzua II Gallery, the second exbition is Chief S.O Alonge's works : The Photographer to the Royal Cout of Benin and the 3rd exibition focuses on Unity in diversity One of the interesting aspects for me was learning about the holy aruosa church benin and that is still stands till date. The entrance fee for the museum is 500 naira per person and they also have a museum brouchure for 500 Nairia. unfortunately like in most museums I have been to so far your aren't allowed to take pictures inside

    Interesting social anthropology museum, conceptually rather on the "arts" side than social interaction, even though there is a bazaar in the "Orient department" and village sites in the Africa department. It does seem a tiny bit aged now but it is still full of beautiful objects from all over the world.

    Great museum. Currently Ocenia exhibition on display. Great if you want to get more familiar with Maui and Maori spiritual rituals.

    By far my favorite museum in Stuttgart. The expositions are so exciting, It is like have a travel to far and unkown places, without leave Stuttgart. I really love it <3

    Great permanent collections, most temporary exhibitions also very interesting (although the one right now, Oceania, is rather small, albeit interesting)

    A big museum with many rooms for different kinds of exhibitions. Some exhibitions are paid and some are free. I had the chance to visit a nice one for free and it was amazing. It was enough to get a taste of it. If I had the time, I wouldn't hesitate to visit the rest of them.
