Visited with some friends from Bonn on the day the museum was celebrating its anniversary with free entrance, a party and a band, so it was busy. The layout and architecture are stunningly good, with the entrance through a pseudo-U-Bahn tunnel under the railway, leading to a lift deep in the hillside, which takes you up to one of the airiest and brightest museum halls you could wish for, with stunning high-level views over the Rhine, and Bad Honnef on the opposite bank. The exhibits explained a lot about Henry Moore and Hans Arp, as you might expect, without overloading visitors with 'interpretation'. The curators seemed to have struck an excellent balance in designing the show. Even if we'd had to pay the usual €10 entrance fee, it would have been worth every cent. After the exhibition, we enjoyed a drink on the railway cafe balcony. The station cafe toilets, weirdly, are a work of art that are themselves worth a visit!

We arrived on a Sunday and pretty much had the place to ourselves after a tour bus left. I am not a WWII history person, but found this museum very fascinating. There are lots of artifacts, beautiful views of the Rhine, and photos. The descriptions are in German and English so no problem with translation and no need for a guide. Well worth the entrance price of 3 Euros. We spent nearly 2 hours here.
