The museum was founded in 1983 in Nuremberg (Northern Bavaria). It is run by a private club - annual
fee for membership EUR 50.- (pupils, students, senior citizens only EUR 25,-).
The permanent exhibition was opened in 1984 in a little town 10 km east of Nuremberg. Since then it has been enlargened up to some 800 square
metres in 4 buildings with an additional open-air exhibition ground.

original size....
