Our offers for children and families

Welcome to the Museum of Applied Arts Cologne. Here you will find chairs and vases, shelves and radios, a “Snow White coffin” and a cactus wardrobe.

There are over 500 items on display in our design department - both design and art. For example, the “Red-Blue Chair” by Gerrit Thomas Rietveld stands next to paintings by Piet Mondrian. You can discover how artists and designers interacted with each other. 

By the way: admission is free for children and young people up to the age of 18.
