children and adults. The aim is to create social contexts as "walk-in" images that come to life through
which become "alive" through the actions of the visitors and thus encourage active participation in shaping society. In this way
the children's museum reaches more and more visitors every year, currently around 45,000.
children's and youth museum in eastern Germany. It was founded in 2010 on the initiative of independent exhibition artist Annegret Hänsel, who designed the Bärenburg playground at Leipzig Zoo, for example. In addition to its unique position as a hands-on museum in the field of cultural education, the children's museum has developed into a socio-cultural center that is specifically visited by families / grandparents with children from 0 to 14 years of age for joint leisure activities. Participatory formats such as the annual summer workshop, project days, voting stations within the exhibition and public participatory competitions allow a broad target group to enrich the themed exhibitions with their own works and ideas or to contribute to them in advance. The temporary interactive exhibitions are mainly designed to be sustainable and portable and can therefore go on tour or be reused after their presentation in the museum. The children's museum is supported by an association. It has been institutionally supported by the City of Leipzig since 2019 (approx. 20% of the costs).
