Air Museum

Experience the history of the city of Amberg. Learn for example more about the Amberg Wedding („Amberger Hochzeit“) 1474, or how the Winter King („Winterkönig“) got his name. You can go shopping at an old-fashioned corner shop, visit a bakery, a pharmacy or a dentist. Another exhibition highlights the long tradition of Beer in Amberg. After that it’s „spot on“ for a historic fashion show. The tour continues to local crafts shops, like a hairdresser, a shoemaker and a goldsmith. At the attic floor of the „Baustadel“ earthenware, enamel and faience mainly manufactured in Amberg are on display. An unique experience is offered by the exhibition „A Tribute to Michael Mathias Prechtl“, which introduces the famous son of the city and internationally known artist and his works. The well-known boardgame Mensch-ärgere-dich-nicht was invented by a man born in Amberg – an entire section highlights the game’s history and invites visitors to try out the game on their own.
