Preis / Leistung könnte echt besser sein. Für 5 Euro wäre es gut bezahlt. Man ist schnell durch und tiefere Erklärungstafeln gibt es nicht. Wie sich im Laufe der Zeit Verpackungen aus Umweltschutzgründen geändert haben wäre auch wünschenswert mehr einzugehen.

Nettes kleines Museum, wenn man sich für die Historie von Markenartikeln und deren Produktverpackungen interessiert. Nett sind auch die originalen Kinder-Kaufmannsläden aus dem frühen bis mittleren letzten Jahrhundert. Was mir nicht gefällt: Zigaretten und Tabak sind meines Erachtens deutlich überrepräsentiert. In einer knappen Stunde ist man durch, somit ist der Besuch ideal, falls man einfach mal 'ne Stunde übrig hat oder einfach mal dem Hauptstraßen-Trubel für einen Moment entkommen will. Bei Anzahl und Interessantheit der Exponate und der Verpackungskunde ist noch Luft nach oben. Die 8 EUR Eintritt sind aufgrund des geringen Besucheraufkommens vermutlich notwendig, aber für sich gesehen deutlich überzogen.

Great, interesting little museum with some English captions.
