I (Carmen) grew up in Augsburg and the Puppenkiste was part of my upbringing. Now I'm sad (though it's not surprising) to say that all plays are only in German, some even in native tongue but all are amazing. When I was younger there was a tour offered and I am not sure if it is still around but if it is, just to get a view behind the scenes, I'd go for that any time again. Last time we went, as my husband is english/french, we only passed it and I showed him the outside. It's also close to the 'Rotes Tor' water tower and open air theater which is only on in summer. There are several tram and bus stations near by which can get you there.

The oldest Jewish Museum in the Federal Republic of Germany sees itself as a historical museum that draws references from Jewish history in Bavarian Swabia to current social issues. It is a place where aspects of migration, integration, homeland and culture are discussed from the perspective of a minority. And it is a place where it is shown that diversity is neither a threat nor an enrichment, but normality. Our permanent exhibition is housed in the Halderstraße synagogue building in the city centre. A tour of the exhibition also includes a look into the magnificent synagogue, inaugurated in 1917, which is used by the Jewish community. Our second location in the former Kriegshaber synagogue, the oldest preserved synagogue in Bavarian Swabia, was opened in 2014 and shows in a very special way that the Jewish history of Augsburg cannot be told without that of the rural communities in Swabia.

...doesn't sound that attractive, doesn't it? Industry either! But then you find this hidden juwel that gives you an insight in the development of the textiles industries in Augsburg, some ideas about how different clothes are made, the importance of patterns and an insight in the development of unions, the Nazi time in Augsburg, from the beginning to the contemporary. It was a very pleasant experience.
