Museum of Education, Friedrichshafen

The School Museum at Friedrichstraße 14 in Friedrichshafen is one of the largest school museums in Germany. It shows the history of school in Germany on three floors. A special feature of the museum are the three original classrooms from 1850, 1900 and 1930, which were saved from demolition from old schoolhouses and built into the museum rooms. In the classrooms you can take a seat in the benches, experience for yourself how the equipment has changed over the centuries and try out some things, for example writing on slates. In addition, there are themed rooms such as the punishment room, the teaching materials collection and a room on the school under National Socialism. Annual temporary exhibitions show new things from the history of childhood.
