Plan your visit ↗

From small to large

The name invites you to look at differences in scale. A small everyday object can raise a different question from a large military object. During the guided tour, ask what is known about origin and use, so that size does not determine which story gets attention.

Different periods

The collection also includes objects from before the Second World War. Keep the periods in the explanation distinct. A local find spot can link pieces without them belonging to the same event or the same era.

Arranging a visit with the collector

The museum can be visited by appointment only, with a personal guided tour. Discuss in advance how much time you have and which subject interests you. Also ask about price and accessibility, as there is no general weekly timetable or standard visitor route to fall back on.

Before you go

Make an appointment in advance and confirm the duration, access and any requirements for your group.
