The unique collection of exhibits on display is supplemented by interactive experiments and multi-media systems. A large library and extended archives as well as a research institute for the history of technology and sciences and the Kerschensteiner Kolleg for the advanced training of teachers and students also belong to the Deutsches Museum. The museum is permanently looking for innovative ways to communicate science and technology to its visitors. |
