    Great little museum and it's shocking how much garbage is found and collected in Cologne. Krake makes a great contribution to waste disposal, and if everyone can contribute something, even better. The art by the deaf and mute artist Barbara is also great. Keep it up!!!!

    Everyone should support the octopus. You can throw your bottle caps into a tube at the gate at any time.

    A real interesting museum. The staff is really kind and shows you around (if you want to). I definitely recommend, especially since this organisation does generally an excellent job

    Today we received a private tour from the “boss” himself! Everything is presented very clearly! Definitely worth a visit! I am a big fan of you and your work here in Cologne and am already looking forward to the next garbage collection campaign!

    Very interesting and passionately designed museum, which shows the visitor how much rubbish there is in our environment. In front of the active members of the K.R.A.K.E. e.V. you can only take your hat off. Great volunteer work. Thank you very much for that!

    I've generally been a fan of upcycling and was very enthusiastic about the 'garbage art'. The Müllseum also makes you think and is definitely worth seeing for children. Everything is explained easily and you are informed in a friendly way about what can be done better in the future when it comes to waste. There are many ways to help keep the world cleaner, even privately, and K.R.A.K.E has a great concept and offers many opportunities to get involved with full energy. For our beautiful, colorful world, which we also want to leave to our children and grandchildren as clean and beautiful as possible ❤️

    The K.R.A.K.E is a great facility that permanently "fishes" garbage and rubbish directly from the Rhine with the Rhine Octopus, a pontoon-like floating device for collecting rubbish and rubbish, and with activities in which volunteers and regular helpers collect rubbish from parks, ponds and the banks of the Rhine. The Müllseum is the club's own facility where you are introduced to rubbish, especially special or conspicuous finds, and you get an overview of the dirt that ends up in water and nature and what it can do to and with animals, for example - frightening and exciting . I recommend that everyone check this out; open Thursdays from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m.

    Sehr informativ, aber irgendwie auch erschreckend. Riesen Respekt vor dem Engagement der K.R.A.K.E.! Aber noch schöner wäre, wenn dieses Engagement nicht nötig wäre - es liegt an uns allen, bewusst und nachhaltig zu leben.

    Funny and deadly serious in one: What waste does, or better said: what we do when we don't dispose of it properly, is made clear here. Illustrative in the best sense. Plastic stuff that has been thrown away for decades, its harmfulness has an immense expiration date. Crown caps, butts, bottles and so on: Christoph Stock and his team have already collected tons of them, some of them turned into art that makes it clear without raising a pedagogical finger: we have to do something. And: each of us can do something. Yes, definitely go to this museum! How K.R.A.K.E manages to build the garbage collection so impressively, all without any support from the city, is sheer madness! The association would certainly not object to a donation.

    Cologne's most extraordinary museum. Small but nice. In the club headquarters of the K.R.A.K.E. (Cologne Rhine Cleanup Command Unit) e.V. there are many interesting facts and impressive exhibits on the subject of garbage. It really makes you want to grab a bag and a gripper to save the world a little bit.

    Weiter so und gerne die Stadt Köln etwas zu ihrem Glück zwingen...

    Absolutely great! Super interesting museum that informs and educates about a very important topic. If you want, the staff can tell you something about the finds and their history, as far as it is known. (e.g. a Fanta can from the 70s) I found the picture of the decomposition of a fishing rope into microplastics very meaningful. Keep it up!

👍👍 An incredible place with a great collection of cars to buy and admire. It is completely free to enter something that absolutely blew my mind considering it houses the Michael Schumacher Private collection museum.
